I have two different layouts of the same schem in two different board files within my project.

But when I go export to gerber there is no way to select which one I want exported.

It always exports the first one I created, and I can’t find any way to change the order.

Other than deleting the first board is there any way I can export only the second?

With the _File → Production Data → Generate Fabrication Data_ dialog it should export the board of the currently opened tab.

However, I’d recommend to use the new _Output Jobs_ feature as it is more powerful. There you can explicitly choose the boards to export:

When multiple boards are selected for export, make sure the term `{{BOARD}}` is contained in the output filenames to avoid conflicting output files.

I see ! Sorry I should have seen that before!

I guess I was tired and didn’t realise I needed to scroll the output jobs window
