Here is a link to a Dynamic Circular Table and Chairs Layout (Diagonal) Component download as a another example of how the SketchUp Dynamic Component feature can be used for table and chair layouts.

Hi Phillip, checked these out and they are quite nice. I have a bit of a speed issue with them though. The default file I open is a bit slow. I can only imagine how tough it would be to make a whole conference room of these tables, especially if the model is slow before inserting the tables. I was thinking it might be a good idea to have proxy models that could be turned on or off so the user can ssee super low-res versions of the table layout while working, and hi-res for exporting animations. Anyhow, its just a thought. The model looks great and worked perfectly from what I could tell,

Hello Chris. I have just uploaded some simpler stylistic bock versions of the Table Layout Dynamic Components. 100 table layouts should now generate in 15-35 seconds on a hp Compaq 8510p notebook with 4GB of Ram. Square table layouts are fastest.
Larger layouts on the same notebook took 3 minutes to generate 700 tables covering 4025m². 1024 Tables processed in 4 minutes 40 in an area 80m x 76.3m being 5888m² ( over 63,000 ft² being 262 x 250 ft ).
One way to make this process less cumbersome as the coverage increases is to break the area up into smaller more manageable regions.
