Style * IconBox 320x80+1040+176, IconFill top left, IconGrid 80 80, \
        IconBox 560x160+1040+256, IconFill top left, IconGrid 80 80

IconFill and IconGrid are applied to the box previously defined.

You are probably getting an error message on the IconFill since it
has no box to apply the fill rule to.
