Save the change to the loaded library 6th icon and that should update the
circuit.

also make sure that you select the correct working library first, once
you make the changes you can then save then into the library which will
update the disk files.

DO get into the habit of making a copy of the device you are modifying
and save that into your own directory and make your own library, then use
that in preference to changing the provided libs. If you change the
provided libs and you update the system, the provided libs normally get
rewritten and you will lose any changs you might have made,
You will have to learn wow to add your own library to the project. 
(Hint Preferences>Library>add)
