Convert Splunk Dashboard to HTML option not available in ellipses dropdown

Problem: I've created a dashboard which looks great, but is limited in functionality by the inherently simple XML structure Splunk uses to stub these things out.

I want to convert my dashboard to HTML but the well advertised "Convert to HTML" option is not available through either the edit button or the ellipses dropdown on the dashboard.

Are there any particular Splunk antics required to make it appear in the drop down?

On both of the installs I have tested I get the same list of options from the ellipses drop down

Clone, Set as Home Dashboard and Delete.

I am logged in as admin on both system with the included capability of edit_view_html and basically every other assignable capability of admin.

I have tried this on versions...

Version:8.1.0 Build:f57c09e87251 

and

Version 4.4.1 Build 1566518380334

Thanks
