OrientedBoxMarker

Marks inside and outside a box that can have arbitrary orientation and center point.

Description

The OrientedBoxMarker operates the in a similar fashion as the BoxMarker; however, the box is defined given a center, width, length, and height. The box is then oriented by defining direction vectors for the width and length dimensions.

The refinement flags for elements inside and/or outside of the box are then defined.
