Looks like a GUI problems. For more details on what's possible with NetworkManager (plus some additional ideas), see: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Networking/Ideas/NetworkManagerMethods#IPv4.2FIPv6_methods_broken_down_to_features > For IPV4 this buttons seems to have no effect at all.

In released versions of NetworkManager, there isn't any possibility to disable IPv6 link-local addresses. In fact it's not properly supported even in the kernel.
