Draw boxes in a tilted rack

These two commands allow to draw a box in the rack's cells:

rackdrawfilledcell
rackdrawvirtualcontent

They work fine when the rack is not tilted. But when the rack is tilted, the boxes are still horizontal.

Is it possible to draw tilted boxes simply?

Thanks!

Attached is your sample model with the draw code modified to rotate the boxes.

It isn't perfect, and you'll need to fudge around with the numbers if you change the angle, but this might give you a good starting point for resolving this in your model.
