Create Named View from object in UCS

I'm trying to create named views from objects (for example a rectangle). Right now I'm using the object extends to get the view's centerpoint, widht and height using the following code.

public static ViewTableRecord CreateFromEntity(Entity entity) { ViewTableRecord viewTableRecord = new ViewTableRecord(); AssignEntityCoords(entity, ref viewTableRecord); return viewTableRecord; } private static void AssignEntityCoords(Entity entity, ref ViewTableRecord viewTableRecord) { Extents3d ext = entity.GeometricExtents; Point2d centerPoint = new Point2d((ext.MinPoint.X + ext.MaxPoint.X) * 0.5, (ext.MinPoint.Y + ext.MaxPoint.Y) * 0.5); double width = Math.Abs(ext.MinPoint.X - ext.MaxPoint.X); double height = Math.Abs(ext.MinPoint.Y - ext.MaxPoint.Y); viewTableRecord.CenterPoint = centerPoint; viewTableRecord.Width = width; viewTableRecord.Height = height; }

This is working great when using the WCS, but if I have a rotated rectangle the view is created like this:

I have tried applying trasformation to the entity before creating the view but didnt get any luck:

Matrix3d transf = Editor.CurrentUserCoordinateSystem; // Using a UCS Entity newEntity = entity.GetTransformedCopy(transf); ViewTableRecord view = CreateFromEntity(newEntity);

In short, I am trying to make a view that aligns with UCS. This can be done easily from the view manager but it becomes tedious to make many views.
