I just duplicated the problem. If I draw a circle shape in the first effect I can't paste the last keyframe until I draw a circle in the new effect. What I then tried was making a polygon with several anchor points in the second effect and then I could not paste the last keyframe circle effect into the new effect. If I then delete the polygon and make a simple circle I can once again paste the last keyframe from the previous effect. This afternoon I had been dropping a polygon preset blur as the second effect when the first effect had been an oval. Haven't tried it with circle to square but you know what they say with a round blur in a square....
