I'm trying to set a motion blur on a simple shape with 3 key frames scaling it up & down. I see the main Blur Icon - but doen't see the one that sets it for the shape /layer I am trying to affect. Below is a screenshot. Many thanks! BTW - I'm in CS6.

    Press F4 on your keyboard.

    If that wont work just press RMB bar with your collumns (red arrow on screenshot), and chose collumns and turn on Switches.

    RMB - right mouse button I think

    BTW - is there a way to contol Blur amount? Like if I wanted it super blurry?

    in the composition settings, under advanced you will see shutter angle and can control the blur through that. what ever you want to know just use the search bar in the upper right corner of your ae interface. type the term you want to explore - you will be then directed to the adobe help files. I recommend choosing "support" to narrow the search to just help articles and not forum.

    here's the motion blur help file:
