    <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;You created object little far from the 0,0 co-ordinates and while creating the block you have chosen the basepoint of the block.

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I have been using AutoCAD 2021 for a month so, forgive my lack of knowledge. I am second year Civil Engineering student.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Anyway, whenever I insert a block, it always appear too far away from the crosshair. I've tried everything I have read here in Forum as well as in Reddit however, all of the suggestions were not working.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Attached below is the proof of my problem:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-center" image-alt="The yellow circle is the block I did.

Look at the distance between the block and the crosshair." /&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-caption" onclick="event.preventDefault();"&gt;The yellow circle is the block I did. Look at the distance between the block and the crosshair.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Badly needed your help. Big thanks!&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;HR /&gt;&lt;a href="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2855596"&gt;@vinodkl&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;wrote:&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P&gt;.... Click on the "pick points" while creating the block and choose the basepoint .....&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;HR /&gt;&lt;/BLOCKQUOTE&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Exactly.&amp;nbsp; In the "old days" before the Block command used a dialog box, you had to go through the step of picking an insertion base point in the process of defining a Block.&amp;nbsp; But for many years now, under the dialog box, 0,0 is always the default insertion base point, though it seldom has any real relationship to the drawn parts of the Block.&amp;nbsp; It's too easy to not notice, and not give it a base point that has some relationship, so it's common to end up with a meaningless base point.&amp;nbsp; I wish it would somehow &lt;EM&gt;not let you proceed&lt;/EM&gt;&amp;nbsp; without specifying a &lt;EM&gt;meaningful&lt;/EM&gt;&amp;nbsp; one, but I don't know how that could be done with a dialog-box interface.&amp;nbsp; Maybe it would be a little less meaningless if the default base point would always be something like the current center of the screen, instead of 0,0.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;After it has happened a few times, you will start to remember that every time you define a Block, you need to specify a base point that makes sense for it.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
