3dsmax - Snap a single vertex of an object to a 0,0,0 (world), moving the entire object with it

Question

I need to position an object at 0,0,0 in the world for game engine purposes. Exporting as an OBJ seems to ignore the pivot entirely.

Currently, I'm using a cube with a corner at 0,0,0 and lining the object up by eye but this is tedious and non-exact. How do you actually do this?

Select your object, click on the move tool, right-click on the move tool to get the dialog. Type 0 0 0 your object will be moved to the origin.

Thanks. And for completeness, I had to snap the pivot to the desired vertex first. – livin_amuk Jun 6 '17 at 16:01
