If I want to explode the chord on beat 3:

The result is:

Which exploded beat 3 just fine, however, all parts in beat 1 got their pitch reassigned to the pitch of beat 1 of the top part. Expected result is that nothing happens to beats that aren't affected by the explode.

Tested on 2.1-dev 2026e09 Arch Linux Mate, although I remember seeing this in 2.0.3 and maybe earlier.

Looking some more, and I find that it doesn't just do it to the first beat. Even if I'm exploding a chord in first beat of the measure, I find beat 4's pre-existing chords get overwritten with their top note.

Ok, I can understand the complications, thanks.
