Are the cells empty? The style can't be changed until the cells have
been allocated. This is being worked on and will be fixed.

As a workaround, put something in each of the cells in r2c4..r2c20. A
label with a single space will do.

Once the cells are allocated, you can simply set the block to r2c2..r20c4
and select the new style from the menu.

Do this:

SIAGHOME=/usr/local/lib/X11/siag/siag
export SIAGHOME
