The Blur effect softens, fogs or obscures the image evenly in all directions. This effect is useful when you want to make images cloudy and not detailed. For example, you can make a drawing object that is farther back or in the background of your scene appear blurry due to the laws of atmospheric perspective. Other uses include the general softening of objects such as snow, stars and shadows that do not naturally have a hard outline.
How to access the Blur dialog box
