Hi RedRose and welcome.
I can't see a macro function in the specifications.
However, like all compact cameras, you can't change the close focus distance as this is a physical function of the lens itself. Some compact cameras did have the macro mode (symbol was a flower) but this typically only adjusted the camera's speed and aperture settings to give the maximum depth of field. In olden days, this setting may have reconfigured some lens elements to allow slightly closer focusing at the expense of not being able to focus to infinity but in recent times this no longer allows closer focusing and in my experience it did not seem to do anything at all. It looks like it may have been discarded.
Your WX80 should give the full focusing range automatically in all modes and focus down to 5cm at wide angle zoom or down to 150cm at full telephoto zoom.
