  On the pages that are tabs for other pages, I am able to get two lines for some but not for all. How can I do something like:
  INSERT
  & LABEL
  Thanking your reply!

  Do you mean when you hover over a menu option and the drop-down shows the different sublinks?

  I see on the CSS that depending on the type of sublink used (external link or internal link) the width of the drop-down menu varies from 160 or 180px. If you are wanting to use a sentence that takes less then 160px of space, then you’re not going to get the two lines like you want.

  For example, if you want to say “INSERT & LABEL,” this line is short enough to fit in the 160px width of the menu space, so it won’t be separated in two lines like you want. As far as I know, we can’t do much with the CSS of WP.com sites unless you upgrade and even then I’m not sure if you could do what you want :(

  I am trying to do

  But, I get
  DVD poster & insert.

  Thanks for responding.

  Yup. That’s exactly what I meant :)

  The line “DVD poster and & insert,” is not long enough to go over the 160 or 180px limit of the drop-down, so it’s sticking to one line only. The other menus had longer names, so they were automatically broken down.

  If you look at that image, there is still space after the end of the word “insert,” so the line had not need to be broken down like the options under “Sources, One,” or other similar menus. In my experience, without altering all the other menus, I don’t believe there is an easy way to do what you want.

  Someone asked the same question you did here. It might help you (but I don’t think you can get that level of customization options in WP.com without an upgrade) and in addition, note that the menu links on the webpage referenced on the previous link show the <br/> line when hover over.
