Hi Jaques!
The chords do not have any specified duration, so they fall back to the default duration, which is a quarter note. For them to have a whole notes length at least the first of them has to have a specified duration, like c1:m . After the first chord having a specified duration the subsequent ones will inherit that, the same way as notes.

Hello folks,
Strangely enough, the first three chords in Part_POne_HARMONIES_Staff_Voice_Eleven_HARMONIES below are quater notes, and not whole notes as I expected.
Any hint why is welcome!
