It looks like the animation code fails to move a group object if one of it's
subobjects is identified in a object selection tag.  

With the new 747-400 wings and flaps I'm working on, each flap (triple slotted
system, inboard and outboard) has both a front and rear component.  The front 
component is "de-selected" when it is tucked inside the wing or flap in front
of it (hidden from view anyway) using a select tag.

The rear-most flap (of 3) on the left next to the fuselage is identified as 
follows in the ac file:

FlapLeftInboard.3 Object type=group
  FlapLeftInboard.3a  Object type=poly
  FlapLeftInboard.3b  Object type=poly

With the select tag on the FlapLeftInboard.3a and a rotate tag on
FlapLeftInboard.3,  the select tag works as expected but the rotate tag only
rotates the "3b" object, not the entire "3" object group as it does when the
select tag is removed from "3a".

Best,

Jim
