Inserted element very remote from reference point

System Vista Home Premium, QCAD version 2.2.2.1
Having created drawing sheets to various scales, I have reduced them to blocks for the library, using the bottom left hand side of the sheet as the reference point, but when reselected from the library and inserted into the window, the block is extremely remote from the cursor cross hair. I have to pan in and out around the screen to find the block. Often they are just pin points on the screen, very far away from the element I was working on.
I understood from the manual that the insertion point was the same as the reference point selected when first making the block.
What am I doing wrong?
