This is a good way. I think. http://universesandbox.com/forum/index.php/topic,509.0.htmlYou can also: 1. Place stars in a disk orbiting a mass 2. Orbit All 3. Place a mass about 1/10 the size of the central black hole (this hasn't been tested) a little further than the farthest stars. This should pull them. Or, I don't remeber if this was mentioned, but: Place a 2D disk around something, and hit orbit all. Hope I helped!

Do you mean rename in in the program, like right click and rename, or rename a photo?

We're talking about renaming the file using Windows Explorer (how you look at all the files on your hard drive). You can't rename or even see these files names inside of Universe Sandbox.

Not yet that is!  When / If Dan does create full saves...the possibilities will open.
