You have to set fixed position within Prototype section of the design panel. if you do not have access to the main component, then you will need to detach instance.

Why is my absolute button not popping up when I select my frame? I am trying to make a sticky navigation bar

Looks like your toolbar is not inside an auto layout, that’s why this option is not available and not needed here. Just open the Prototype tab and make it sticky.

Change the constraint of the toolbar from top to bottom
