    After opening Media Library in grid view, I clicked on an image and went to Attachment Details window. Although the fields are editable, there is no Update/Save button visible. I did edit one field and then clicked my mouse in the empty space outside of the field. The work “Saved.” appeared briefly in the upper right corner of the window and then disappeared.

    If people are meant to make changes in this window, perhaps add the standard Update button to make the interface more intuitive.

    It auto-saves: https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/22613

    So the intention was to NOT have a save button.

    Okay. I guess I just find that to be inconsistent with the interface on other WP screens. I am updating WP documentation and training videos for clients and am having to explain how this screen works differently from others, which makes it an odd (and somewhat confusing) interface design choice. Not my choice to make, though 🙂
