Set starting position to current position?

I'm creating an animation. I want to move a game object from whatever its current position on the screen is, over to x=100, y=0, z=0. At compile time I obviously don't know it's current position as that can change. When I add the property for the transform position in the animation window though, it sets the starting position of the timeline as 0,0,0. How do I tell it that the starting position is whatever it currently is on the screen when the animation is invoked?

Thanks

 

Thanks! I have a controller though and since I build critical production software I can't use the beta version (2018.3) yet. So guess I'll hold off on this part of the project for now. Thanks again

 

Sorry to necro this thread, but I have a question about this same topic.

What I would like to do is have an object move from 'wherever it is when the Timeline is triggered' to a specific point over 2 seconds. I am using the Record feature to set a keyframe for the desired endpoint position of the object 2 seconds into the Timeline.

When I run the game and start the timeline, it instantly moves the object to the keyframe location that is 2 seconds into the Timeline.

Is there any way for me to set it up so that the object can smoothly move from 'wherever it currently is' to the desired endpoint location? Again, I'm using the Record option so it isn't an Animation Clip with options for ease-in, etc.

Thanks for any help!

Edit: Solved - All I needed to do was convert the Recorded track to an Animation Clip, and then set the Ease-In, like seant mentioned
