After a lot of trial and error, found the solution.
In case someone else has a desire to do this, two changes
Change the skin ascx file from ,
<div id="navdttg" class="nav-collapse collapse pull-right">
<dnn:MENU ID="bootstrapNav" MenuStyle="bootstrapNav" runat="server"></dnn:MENU>
</div>
to
<div id="navdttg" class="nav-collapse collapse">
<dnn:MENU ID="bootstrapNav" MenuStyle="bootstrapNav" runat="server"></dnn:MENU>
</div>
Update the skin.css, nav-collapse class to remove float-right
/* Site Navigation */
.nav-collapse {
/* float: right;*/
position:relative;
top: 18px;
}
To adjust the arrow location top attribute (was -15px)
.navbar .nav > li > .dropdown-menu:after {
position:absolute!important;
top: -6px!important;
Hope this helps someone else,
Jim
