Working in Apple Pages creating 6 ID Badges. In Arrange why is Object Placement first box Not Available to me?

So my question is how can I "unlock or re-Activate" the STAY ON PAGE box taking out of Greyed Mode See Screen Shot below to useable Black type for my 6 Badges with access to TAY ON PAGE

Thank you, as I realize this is what is required. When that did not work again and again . . .again, I then called Apple Support Canada. Their response to me after seeing my screen with their great red arrow, as to what I was doing so small, involving graphics in centre of normal sized paper. He said I am asking a lot from an app meant for writing, not much; something better created by Adobe Illustrator for Macs. These badges are to printed on plastic one at a time. So my “Object positioning “ BC” for “stay on page” was not working or available causing Shapes, text and logos to move about when printed or exported to a PC Word formate for supplier to print. Why not work within PC Word. I would I could and can’t do on it what do Pages. It’s due to emailed my contact this morning.
