In fixture creator (separate software installed with freestyler) you must open the fixture file and under the description tab make sure the locate values are set.

If noone setup the fixture file with the locate values then that option will not work.

Seems to be a bit of miscommunication and understanding here. dennisgamaleg, based on your last post what you want to do is locate the fixture picture in a different place on the Freestyler workspace. The option you selected in your picture LOCATES the actual instrument by sending the LOCATE value that is recorded in the fixture creator to the instrument so that you can physically see where the instrument is.

To move the fixtures picture around on the main screen:
In the top menu click on Edit then click on Move Fixtures
Select the fixture or fixtures you want to move then click and hold on the/a fixture.
Drag the fixture(s) to the desired location and release the mouse button.
When you are finished moving the fixtures click on Edit then click on Move Fixtures to remove the check mark.

Note that if multiple fixtures are selected they all move as a group.
