The best advice is … avoid long titles! If you must
write a long title, you will have to choose the breakpoints yourself.
There are two places you may need to break the title: at the beginning
of the chapter, section or subsection, and in the table of contents.
You specify these break points separately, using \titlebreak
and
\tocbreak
, respectively. For example, the title of this section
was typed like this:
\section{Sometimes you need a long \tocbreak
title\titlebreak that must be set on two lines}{Long lines}{}
Note that any section title that appears in the header on an
odd numbered page will appear as a single line, so
you will need to use the optional second parameter to \section
to provide a shorter title.
