The option you are looking for is "float". You will most likely need one part fixed in your assembly though or mated in place.
Here is what Grant was talking about.
If you have configurations you are able to decide which configurations it is fixed or floating in. Also as Grant said to have the assembly constrained you need to have at least one item fixed or mated to the origin. If you have a base part that supports or locates everything else that would be the part that usually should be fixed. I prefer to mate the 3 main planes of the main part to the 3 planes of the assembly.
I dont have all this choice when I right click on my (F)
I see your problem now. You are attempting to move an item in a sub-assembly. You can only move an item in the top level assembly unless the sub assembly is set to "flexible" or is active. I will get some pictures for you.
You would need to have the subassembly active to be able to have the option to float a fixed part in the subassembly. If a part is not fixed or fully mated you can make the subassembly flexible and move the part. Here are the icons to make those changes.
Have you tried opening the subassy to see if it shows?
