I created a block library with a couple hundred blocks. When I access those blocks in other drawings with the design library, the selection point is way down and left of the block itself. I have to zoom extents to find the actual block. Is there a way to change the location of that point? I guess you could say the point is the blue square that appears when you click on the object.

Open the block in block editor and move all the entities so that where you want the insert point to be is on 0,0,0. Then just save changes to the block editor.
When making new blocks, use the option to select insert point and pick the point you want to use as its insert point.
