I believe Hans Hagen said this around Wed, 15 Jan 2003:
Currently I can work around by hand-breaking the titles before "problematic" words to achieve this (simulation in fixed-width font):
\framed[align={nothyphenated,middle},width=4cm] {}
Hmm. Yes, middle refuses to break words. In my experiments, it doesn't matter whether or not "nothyphenated" is there as a keyword. However, I'm absolutely stumped as to how to translate those ideal "middle" line breaks to left-ragged text. This is as for as I've gotten: \framed[offset=none,align={left},width=4.2cm] {\nohyphens% %\setuptolerance[stretch]% Perceptual Dissimilarity and Verbal Attribute Ratings of Oboe Tones~I: \\ an investigation of tones at different pitch and dynamic levels } In this particular case, uncommenting the stretch tolerance is enough to make the overfull first line go away. However, with the actual chapter title format I'm using, even \setuptolerance[stretch] is not enough to defeat the overfull lines I get.
