Sometimes you will want to turn single points into polygons. This is necessary for objects like stars in a starfield, since you cannot assign surface attributes to a point, and points don’t appear in renders. Choose Create > * Polygons* > Points to Polys to turn selected points into single-point polygons (also known as Particles).
