Description

Right now it is a bit hard to see if a share note was send out correctly. The drop down always looks like this:

How about replacing the arrow with a "sent" confirmation label and only turn it back to an arrow if the user modifies the note? This way you not only get immediately a feedback if the note was sent out correctly but you also see that it was already successfully sent out if you come back to the drop-down a few days later.

Research direction

No file or test is named; start by locating the share-note dropdown and its send-state handling in the Nextcloud server UI. Confirm the current behavior against the screenshots, then verify that a successful send shows a sent label and that editing the note restores the arrow.
