    I’d like to animate a lens flare around the edge of a circular logo. When I set the start and end points I expect to see a motion path that I can adjust like a regular layer but it doesn’t apper. Is this possible or am I confined to linear moves.

    Double-click on the layer name in the timeline window to open layer view. At the bottom of the layer view window choose the effect from the View menu – in your case, lens flare. From here you can edit the path just like you would a motion path – even paste a mask or path shape for editing.
