Thank you, Werner.

I thought that there must be a way to change indivual noteheads within a =
chord but could not find "duration-log=E2=80=9D. Since=20
>> <<g4 es'4 es'2~>>
is a quite convenient notation for triple- and quadruple-stops on bowed =
string instruments, I will continue using this and ignore the error =
message.

Thanks again and best regards,

Jun
