Can't place advance-rotated objects

When not editing a building, I can't seem to be able to place an object that has advanced rotation / movement. Single click doesn't place it, and clicking on another object or pressing escape seems to reset it's position as shown here:

At I'm trying to click and press enter or press 'x' (which just switches between rotate and translate). Alas the only way out is clicking on another object or pressing escape, both which reset it. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks guys!

UPDATE: I seem to have found out that it thinks the scenery item is intersecting the track, so it won't let me place it. There is a very faint red glow (I thought it was just my red spotlights I put by it) around the piece when I bring it anywhere near the track.

Hopefully we can get an update where in modes like "advanced mode", we won't be restricted where we place scenery items. I can find lots of pieces I would like to put right on or under coaster track that I can't.

technically the object is not placed, you have to click outside of the rotation section and it will be placed, then you can select something else. Kind of weird I know but thats what you have to do it seems

Thanks! I actually found that the reason it wasn't working is because it thinks it's too close to the track, so it won't let me place. Usually it turns a bright red, but it was hard to see it at day. It's much easier to see the red outline at night.
