Some times the text in the top margin matching a section, or subsection, title, is too long. Is there a way to use There is a long and winding road as subsection title, and the long an winding road as top margin text?

That's the purpose of the optional argument of the sectioning commands: \section[The long and winding road]{There is a long and winding road that leads to your door} – Mane32 Mar 28 '24 at 19:06

@Mane32 Incidentally, what is the name of the text in the top margin? – Frode Alfson Bjørdal Mar 28 '24 at 19:17
