On the Manage Display tab when making changes the following yellow box appears:
* Changes made in this table will not be saved until the form is submitted.
But on the page there is no Submit button only a Save button. I, of course, can understand they are one in the same, but in usability testing most users are confused by the inconsistency and spend a lot of time looking for a way to Submit not Save.
For a correct example try making a change on the block administration page and you will get the following yellow box:
* The changes to these blocks will not be saved until the Save blocks button is clicked.

swentel commentedThere's not a lot that we can do here, that's a Field UI problem and in the end a core thing that should be fixed first. #857312: Add a "changes not applied until saved" warning when changing widget/formatter settings
