#### 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?

`break-visibility` (vector):
  `#(#t #f #f)`

  A vector of 3 booleans, #(end-of-line unbroken begin-of-line). #t means visible, #f means killed.

`style` (symbol):
  `'vaticana`

  This setting determines in what style a grob is typeset. Valid choices depend on the `stencil` callback reading this property.

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

  Which direction to take in the center of the staff.

`Y-offset` (number):
  `ly:staff-symbol-referencer::callback`

  The vertical amount that this object is moved relative to its Y-parent

`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: break-aligned-interface, font-interface, staff-symbol-referencer-interface, custos-interface, item-interface and grob-interface
