Placing on origin after placing


This tells the story of placing directly by the green check.
Is it also possible to use this click-method after that the component has been placed in the assembly with an earlier green check?

@H_d_V,Yes it is possible to use this click-method after that the component has been placed in the assembly with an earlier green check by following below method step,
Step1: select part or parts in an assembly from feature tree (for getting origin at proper CG) / from model space (for getting selected face triad manipulator origin place)
Step2:- A manipulator triad appears that now controls all selected parts.
Step3:- RMB over the triad origin and select 'move to origin' (moves this point (and all selected parts) to the assembly origin)
Please refer below video for more detail.
