Box2d sensor rotation problem

Question

in my app the user is able to move or rotate a box2d fixture. The collision detection works fine. But if I set the fixture as a sensor, with the SetSensor(true) method, the collision detection reacts weird. In the following picture the red rectangle is the sensor, but a collision is also detected if an other fixture collides with the black border.

Is it possible that only the red rectangle reacts as a sensor?

b2BodyDef bodyDef;
bodyDef.type = b2_staticBody;
bodyDef.position.Set(position.x/PTM_RATIO, position.y/PTM_RATIO);
bodyDef.userData = NULL;
b2Body *body = _game.world->CreateBody(&bodyDef);

b2PolygonShape dynamicBox;
dynamicBox.SetAsBox(size.x/2/PTM_RATIO, size.y/2/PTM_RATIO);

b2FixtureDef fixtureDef;
fixtureDef.shape = &dynamicBox;
fixtureDef.isSensor = true;

body->CreateFixture(&fixtureDef);
body->SetTransform(body->GetPosition(), rotatingAngle);

I found the help here: Box2D Forum

I just forgot to check if the contact is touching (with the IsTouching() method)! Now it works fine!!!
