Thank you, Liviu and Ingar!

I have tested the chapter* and addcontentsline solution, but it messes
up the automatic chapter and section numbering since I can't manage to
transfer the correct chapter/section number to the TOC for the headings
that need to be changed and the book is rather long (500 pages), and
manually number all headings is little too much work.

The Context menu > Insert short title solution seems to work very well
for my purposes. It is strange how easy solutions in LyX are when you
discover them!

Thank you both!

Hi

There are many ways to do this, but I suggest that you use chapter*
and format the linebreaks (CTRL+ENTER) where you want them and then i
ERT add just after chapter* add:
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{This a long text with the name of the
Chapter}

Short title is the solution for me too. By the way, you can use ctrl+enter to enter a linebreak in lyx (a \\ in latex).
