                            data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#navbar"
                            aria-expanded="false" aria-controls="navbar">
                        <span class="sr-only">Toggle navigation</span>
                        <span class="icon-bar"></span>

                        <li class="active"><a href="#">Home</a></li>
                        <li><a href="#about">About</a></li>
                        <li><a href="#contact">Contact</a></li>
                        <li class="dropdown">
                            <a href="#" class="dropdown-toggle"

                                <li><a href="#">Another action</a></li>
                                <li><a href="#">Something else here</a></li>
                                <li role="separator" class="divider"></li>
                                <li class="dropdown-header">Nav header</li>
                                <li><a href="#">Separated link</a></li>
                                <li><a href="#">One more separated link</a></li>
                            </ul>
                        </li>
                    </ul>
                    <ul class="nav nav-pills pull-right">
                        <li role="presentation" class="active"><a
                                href="#">test1</a></li>
                        <li role="presentation"><a href="#">test2</a></li>
                        <li role="presentation"><a href="#">test3</a></li>
                    </ul>
                </div>
            </div>
        </nav>

the three buttons test1,test2,test3 are supposed to be on the right of navbars and vertical align middle. But it look likes: img here

It there any css class can make it automatically aligned? Actually I'm new to css, just want to quickly build up my UI using bootstrap.....

Answer 1

use height and padding to your anchor tag

.nav-pills a{
  padding-top: 17px !important;
  padding-bottom: 17px !important;
  height: 54px !important;
}

or you can give class to anchor tag and use this css. you can inspect to the other anchor tag you can see the same css

Answer 2

@Ziqi, here's a link to a codeply project that implements your navigation bar. It just has a CSS class to add a margin between the buttons and the top of the navigation bar.
