How do we import work areas and UCS's from one drawing to another? For instance, if we've set up 30 sheets (work areas) and associated UCS's in the planting plan, how do we bring those into the the irrigation and construction sheets?
And, on a similar vein, what if a separate drawing includes only the work areas and associated UCS's (it could also include match lines or other common elements)? Then any drawings that reference that master drawing could use those xreffed work areas and UCS's.

Our Restore UCS tool automatically pulls in UCS's from the xref, so that part's easy.
For Work Areas, the best solution is to isolate the layer, WBlock them out and then use the Xref button in the Work Area dialog to attach it all necessary drawings.

Oh my! This is awesome! 
Does the align pipe sizing to the associated work area/UCS work for this method? What about recognizing scale for inserting blocks? Does it recognize the work areas if they are added this way?

The work areas look and act exactly the same as if they were in the current drawing.
