If you like to use new tint2 from Juni 2023 ISO…

```auto
cd ~/.config/tint2
wget https://repo.maboxlinux.org/contrib/tint2/Istredd.tint2rc

```

Select it from: super + alt + p → Choose Tint2…

From release announcement:

> ### Default panel changes/improvements
> 
> As you probably know (or not), the tint2 panel allows you to attach many actions to the buttons: separately for: _left-click_, _right-click_, _middle-click_, _scroll-up_ and _scroll-down_ events.  
> In Mabox we have been using these possibilities for a long time, this time several possibilities have been added:

> - The **wallpaper icon** allows you to: select a wallpaper, set a random one and show a menu with actions related to wallpapers (Colorizer, Slideshow, configuration of wallpaper directories)
> - The **music and sound menu** – accessible by right-clicking on the volume control icon – is now a lightweight mpv-based audio player.  
> It’s not a replacement for the full-featured player, but it’s useful if you need background music for a coding session, for example.
> - **_Right-click_ on the clock** shows a menu for configuring the clock: you can quickly change the color, font and format for both lines.

Also, if you need to use Cortile together with Mabox’s panel applet for controlling it…

```auto
mkdir -p ~/.config/cortile
cd ~/.config/cortile/
wget https://repo.maboxlinux.org/contrib/tint2/config.toml
cd ~/.config/cortile/tint2-cortile/
wget https://repo.maboxlinux.org/contrib/tint2/{vertical-left,vertical-right,horizontal-top,horizontal-bottom,fullscreen,untiled}.png

```

Install cortile:

```auto
yay cortile

```

And start it from middle-click on desktop menu.
