In GE, whole notes constituting part of chords that also contain notes of different rhythmic values are placed close to the middle of the bar, more or less above the 4th quaver of the L.H. Such notation, characteristic for Chopin's autographs, has long gone out of use. In FE, the tendency to graphically separate whole notes is much less pronounced, while EE's notation is close to contemporary practice.
