Hello.

I have one question. Does anyone use kwe_contextual links? Until recently this kind of links sounded to me like oxymoron. Now I have a case where I have to extract some KWE values from one assembly to several others. The source assembly must be exchangeable. Here I have two scenarios:

1. Kwe_contextual - (if published correct) - KWE links in all children assemblies are automatically relinked to new source assembly

2. Kwe_reference - KWE links of each child must be manually rerouted to new file with "edit links"

Because of a simplicity in source exchanging I'm thinking of using Kwe_contextual links. I wanted to check with experienced users if there are any reasons to avoid such links before I start to build models in such way.

Thanks in advance.
