Hi

This will create a new button, let me know whether it has to display list of option in menu view

<dashboard script="button.js">
  <label>button</label>
   <row>
    <panel>
      <table>
        <search>
          <query>index="_internal" |stats count by sourcetype</query>
          <earliest>-24h@h</earliest>
          <latest>now</latest>
        </search>
        <option name="drilldown">none</option>
      </table>
    </panel>
  </row>
</dashboard>

javascript:

require(["jquery", "splunkjs/mvc", "splunkjs/mvc/simplexml/ready!"], function($, mvc) {

    var r=$('<input/>').attr({
                      type: "button",
                      id: "field",
                      value: 'New Button',
                      class:'btn'
                  });

$("div[data-view='views/dashboard/header/ExportMenu']").append(r); 
});

Hi

Check this, a little bit tweak required

<dashboard script="button.js">
  <label>button</label>
  <row id="temp">
    <html>
      <div data-popdown-role="dialog" class="dropdown-menu export-menu shared-poptart open" id="newmenu" style="display: none; top: -10px; left: 93%; margin-left: -189px; bottom: auto;">                
        <div class="arrow" style="margin-left: 40px;"/>                            
            <ul class="first-group">                                            
                <li>

            </ul>            
      </div>
    </html>
  </row>
</dashboard>

javascript:

        $("#newbtn").click(function() {

Hi

Give a try with following js

require([
"jquery", 
"splunkjs/mvc", 
"splunkjs/mvc/simplexml/ready!"], function($, mvc) {
            $( "#newmenu" ).parent().removeClass("panel-body html");     
    var temp='<a class="btn" href="#" id="newbtn" >New Button <span class="caret"></span></a>'                  
    $("div[data-view='views/dashboard/header/EditMenu']").prepend(temp); 
        $("#newbtn").click(function() { 
        var div = document.getElementById('newmenu');
            if (div.style.display !== 'none') {
                div.style.display = 'none';
            }
            else {
                div.style.display = 'block';
            }
        });             
        $(document).mouseup(function (e){
            var container = $("#newmenu");
            if (!container.is(e.target) && container.has(e.target).length === 0){
                container.fadeOut();
            }
        });

<form script="button.js" theme="dark">
  <label>Button testing</label>
  <fieldset submitButton="false">
    <input type="dropdown" token="selected_agent" searchWhenChanged="true">
      <label>Select Agent</label>

      <choice value="*">ALL</choice>
      <choice value="test1">test1</choice>
      <choice value="test2">test2</choice>
      <!--change>
        <condition>
          <unset token="errortype"></unset>
        </condition>
      </change-->
    </input>
  </fieldset>
  <row id="temp">
    <panel>
      <html>
       <div data-popdown-role="dialog" class="dropdown-menu export-menu shared-poptart open" id="newmenu" style="display: none; top: -10px; left: 82%; margin-left: -181px; bottom: auto;">                
           <div class="arrow" style="margin-left: 40px;"/>                            
               <ul class="first-group">                                            
                   <li>
             <a href="/app/search/test_report?form.selected_agent=$selected_agent$" class="">Option1</a>
           </li>                                                                                            
                   <li>

           </li>

       </div>
     </html>
    </panel>
  </row>
  <row>
    <panel>
      <table>
        <search>
          <query>index=_internal|stats count by sourcetype</query>
          <earliest>-15m</earliest>
          <latest>now</latest>
          <sampleRatio>1</sampleRatio>
        </search>
        <option name="count">20</option>
        <option name="dataOverlayMode">none</option>
        <option name="drilldown">none</option>
