The attached file uses a custos engraver, and also has a time
signature change at the end of a line. There are a couple of problems
with this file under 0.4.2. One is that the custos is too close to
the new time signature. But I think this is secondary to the other
problem. The reason the Custos is shaped like that, with a tail which
normally sticks out into the right margin, is that it's expected to be
the last thing on the line. So it really should be *after* the new
time signature, not before it. I took a quick look through my
facsimiles of 16th and early 17th century music and couldn't find a
confirmation of this theory of mine, but it makes sense to me.
Is there a way to set \property Score.breakAlignOrder so that this
would be true?
