 * In the past I had all my menu across the top on one line. Each update I have 
   changed a file to fix this. Now I forgot where it is at. Can this be made in 
   a Child Them

 * Cubmanky,
 *  Did you make a backup of the site?
 *  Also, you may want to use a plugin like Simple Custom CSS where you can put 
   the CSS code to specify your menu width. That way, whenever you update your theme,
   your changes won’t be lost.

 * Use a spot-the-difference tool with the theme’s original CSS and your modified
   CSS to see the difference: [http://diffchecker.com](http://diffchecker.com)

 * That’s fine. You can just copy all of the styles into your Child Theme style.
   css file and then not enqueue the parent theme style.css file.

 * I think you misunderstood, or maybe I did, I meant copy all of your theme’s style.
   css file (apart from the CSS comments at the top) and then paste that into your
   Child Theme style.css file

 * I added
 *     ```
       #top #access .menu > li > a{
           width:100%;
           display:block;
           padding:0 1em;
           box-sizing:border-box;
       ```
   
 * to my child and that moved it to one line now by decreasing the padding, but 
   they are not centered.

 * There is no place where you are wrong,
 * The browser of the width, in a state in which the reduced to 640px,
 * it is good to problems should be sure whether not occur on the screen.
