Description

Currently the "Important Info" section at https://software.sil.org/fieldworks/download/fieldworks-lite/ says "All entries created will have the Morph type of stem". Once morph types are fully implemented and selectable in the entry editor, we should remove that line or update it to say "Entries can be created with any morph types supported by FieldWorks Classic." And add a mention that if the user wants to edit morph types, such as changing their leading or trailing tokens, that must be done in FieldWorks Classic, then a Send/Receive in FW will make the data available in FW Lite.

Research direction

Open the FieldWorks Lite page at https://software.sil.org/fieldworks/download/fieldworks-lite/ and locate its “Important Info” section. Update the morph-type guidance using the wording in the issue, including the FieldWorks Classic editing and Send/Receive note; done means the published section accurately reflects the supported workflow.
