Description

Hello, I sent a small part of the mBTC to see if they would come to Binance, that is: I copied the address of the wallet on the Binance exchange. I entered how much mBTC I want to send from Electrum to the exchange. I clicked send and entered the password to confirm this transaction. The fee was charged
After about 15 hours, the transaction became visible in the Electrum transaction list, but the transaction title is highlighted in red. There is also the info "Local" next to it.
In the "Send" tab next to the transaction there is the info "unconfirmed". Someone on bitcointalk.org gave me an advice to report that thing here so I am doing that. Reason: "That is unintended"
This happened while transferring bitcoin from the desktop wallet to the exchange. I did the transaction, but it turned out to be only partially, because it needs a few signatures, and I have "signed 1/2" marked.

Research direction

The report names no source files, tests, or entry points. Start by reproducing the wallet-history case with a partially signed transaction and compare the displayed invoice status with the reported PR_UNCONFIRMED and Local labels; done means the intended status is shown consistently for this scenario.
