In model space, we usually use DVIEW/TWIST of our view of the site information to fit the shape of the sheet better, then employing SNAPANG to rotate the crosshairs to match. This makes it easier to type in text and so forth with better readability.

When I draw a rectangle, using RECTANG command, the rectangle always matches the UCS, no matter what my view rotation is. Is there a way to set the rotation of the rectangle to match the DVIEW/TWIST? As it is, I create the rectangle, then have to rotate it afterwards to the alignment I want.
