Hi all again.. New issue.

This is odd. I can fix the groups/layers. I click '01' next to 'top' and 
'top side', then 02 next to 'bottom' and 'bottom side', and '03' next to 
the unused layers and then I get a complete bottom .gbr and .ps files.

But this is not saved? If I save the pcb and open again then  file->export 
gerbers, it's back to the bottom layer missing the traces (on a different 
board)...

I can work around it (just remember I have to set this every time). Or 
probably better, get pcb-rnd installed.... Just in case I'm doing 
something dumb.

Thanks ya'll
