    I want to create an animation that will change an image's position along the X axis, but when I went to Add Property, only the Z Position is available. What gives?

    For a Rect Transform, you will be manipulating the "Anchored Position" property. From within that property you can manipulate both the "Anchored Position.x" and "Anchored Position.y" value. This is because UI objects are position relative to the borders of the Canvas object. Hope that helps you out.

    Instead of modificating the property in the Animation window, modify it in the scene window, and as it said it TrickyHandz for a Rect Transform is manipulated by the 'Anchored Position'.
