#### Custos

Custos objects are created by: Custos_engraver

Standard settings:

`break-align-symbol` (symbol):
  `'custos`

  This key is used for aligning and spacing breakable items.

`breakable` (boolean):
  `#t`

  Can this object appear at a line break, like clefs and bar lines?

`print-function` (procedure):
  `Custos::print`

  Function taking grob as argument, returning a `Stencil` object.

`break-visibility` (procedure):
  `end-of-line-visible`

  A function that takes the break direction and returns a cons of booleans containing (transparent . empty). The following variables are predefined: `all-visible`, `begin-of-line-visible`, `end-of-line-visible`, `begin-of-line-invisible`, `end-of-line-invisible`, `all-invisible`.

`style` (symbol):
  `'vaticana`

  This setting determines in what style a grob is typeset. Valid choices depend on the `print-function` that is reading this property.

`neutral-direction` (direction):
  `-1`

  Which direction to take in the center of the staff.

`Y-offset-callbacks` (list):
  `'(#<primitive-procedure Staff_symbol_referencer::callback>)`

  see `X-offset-callbacks`.

`space-alist` (list):
  `'((first-note minimum-fixed-space . 0.0) (right-edge extra-space . 0.1))`

  A table that specifies distances between prefatory items, like clef and time-signature. The format is an alist of spacing tuples: `(`break-align-symbol type`.` distance`)`, where type can be the symbols `minimum-space` or `extra-space`.

This object supports the following interfaces: item-interface, break-aligned-interface, font-interface, staff-symbol-referencer-interface, custos-interface and grob-interface
