To add a newline to the text displayed under the icon you can add unicode newline sequence to the Edit Item entry like this:
Set cursor to the position you want the linebreak, press and hold CTRL+SHIFT and type u0a (0 is the numeric character zero)
While typing it appears as u0A, when releasing the keys a block appears reading 000A. This is the unicode symbol for newline.

@HerrBert

Part of the problem a user finds in the forums is advice with 5 ways to do something. We want to avoid that and give the user ONE way that works. I felt the Geany method would be easier to remember.
