### 3.1.77 OctavateEight

OctavateEight objects are created by: Clef_engraver and Cue_clef_engraver.

Standard settings:

> `break-visibility` (vector):

>   `inherit-x-parent-visibility`

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

> `font-shape` (symbol):

>   `'italic`

>   Select the shape of a font. Choices include `upright`, `italic`, `caps`.

> `font-size` (number):

>   `-4`

>   The font size, compared to the ‘normal’ size. `0` is style-sheet’s normal size, `-1` is smaller, `+1` is bigger. Each step of 1 is approximately 12% larger; 6 steps are exactly a factor 2 larger. Fractional values are allowed.

> `self-alignment-X` (number):

>   `0`

>   Specify alignment of an object. The value `-1` means left aligned, `0` centered, and `1` right-aligned in X direction. Other numerical values may also be specified.

> `staff-padding` (dimension, in staff space):

>   `0.2`

>   Maintain this much space between reference points and the staff. Its effect is to align objects of differing sizes (like the dynamics p and f) on their baselines.

> `stencil` (stencil):

>   `ly:text-interface::print`

>   The symbol to print.

> `X-offset` (number):

>   `#<simple-closure (#<primitive-generic +> #<simple-closure (#<primitive-procedure ly:self-alignment-interface::x-aligned-on-self>) > #<simple-closure (#<primitive-procedure ly:self-alignment-interface::centered-on-x-parent>) >) >`

>   The horizontal amount that this object is moved relative to its X-parent.

> `Y-offset` (number):

>   `ly:side-position-interface::y-aligned-side`

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

This object supports the following interface(s): font-interface, grob-interface, item-interface, self-alignment-interface, side-position-interface and text-interface.
