Thank you, Werner. I thought that there must be a way to change indivual noteheads within a chord but could not find "duration-log”. Since >> <<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.
