Condensing double stops?

I see some related threads but I don’t know if I’ve run across this specific case on the forum. In 2023 I engraved the first movement of Bartók’s Music for Strings, Percussion and Celesta, and from what I remember it worked fine.

Opening the file now, whenever I try to condense strings with double stops, some of the notes disappear (bars 51-64) and there the occasional double noteheads (cello bar 52, violins and viola bars 56-60). But they are all there in galley view.

Was my memory mistaken and this was always an issue? Did I do something wrong in the condensing? There is no divisi in the file. Thanks for any ideas!

I’m afraid Dorico doesn’t support the condensing of material that is in multiple simultaneous voices on a “source” staff.
