Sample document

With "LibreOffice 3.3.1  – WIN7  Home Premium  (64bit) English UI [OOO330m19
(build 8 / tag 3.3.1.2)]" (and more early versions)  it's hard to select
elements. Although the complete little drawing is within the mouse selection
frame, it will not be selected after you will have released the frame.

Steps to reproduce:
0. Open attached sample
1. <control>+<a> to check what the complete DRAWING might be. You will see 
   control points for the small 28x8 mm Drawing
2. <esc> to unselect
3. Try to select complete little drawing, for that create a selection frame
   with the mouse pointer. Click app. x/y 20/30 and drag mouse pointer with 
   pushed left button to app. 70/60
   A selection frame will be shown 20/30 - 70/60 that includes the complete
   Drawing
4. Release mouse button
   expected: complete drawing within selection frame will be selected
   actual: only circle with "Y" and small bar at the left to the rectangle
           with the flaps will be selected, rectangle with flaps remains 
           unselected

You will have to span a really very big selection frame to get all Drawing 
selected, that makes it really difficult to select parts of a bigger drawing.

It seems that the problem is caused by rotation of parts of the drawing. If you
click the rectangle, rotate (around center) clockwise 90°, click the 3 flap
elements and also rotate (around center) clockwise 90°. Afterwards you can
select that rectangle with contents or also including the Y-Circle without
problems.

I can not remember to have seen that with OOo 3.1.1 (I will check soon), but I
see the same problem with OOo 3.4-dev
