SketchUp iPad: rotate Tool not listening to selections

It’s not a deal breaker, but it has been irritating lately with all the rotating I have been doing.

With these specs

When I try to rotate things with edges that are already touching another group, even if I preselect the group I wish to effect, it changes the selection to the touching entity as soon as I drag out. This is usually the case for me as I use the rotate tool to align things from a known point, ie, the corner of another group.

Not a deal breaker, I just move it out, but that’s another step and another thought process and not at all intuitive.

Am I doing it wrong?

The technique I used for constructing geodesics on iPad may help. See my post.
