Description

when the user have same name for the artboard they can reselect the new art board because it selects the both artboard on time !

when I select the one it selects the both so it works as same as the "All Artboard" option.

Research direction
Investigate the artboard export selection logic. Likely the code compares artboard names without handling duplicates. Look for function that lists selectable artboards and how selection is handled, possibly in the export dialog or backend. Check for any existing tests related to artboard selection. The video shows the bug; reproduce locally to identify the relevant code.
