Wait for the creator (@napcok) Mabox will probably help you.
But you will have to give more details.

I’m sorry, but there is no information in the post that would allow me to engage in any way on the topic.
There is no error message or log or anything.
I have never encountered the described problem, and I do not know of a single similar case.

Hola Ben,

Well if this is happenning to you with Tint2 panel, please send more details like : Mabox version? , is tint2 panel working with another DE like xfce or other ? About this tint2 panel, which one ? The default Mabox tint2 panel or a different panel ? If you want to check up which panel you are using in Mabox, press Super or Windows key + Alt + p and have a look at Tint2 Panel dialog window settings… you can also try a different panel from the bottom panel window settings > Choose panel section.

The easiest way to get useful information is usually to run the program from terminal and follow the messages.
In this case:

tint2 -c  ~/.config/tint2/mabox2111.tint2rc

It is also good to learn a bit about used tools.
Read documentation, manpage or help.
It is possible that reading help is enough in that case…

 $ tint2 --help

  -h, --help               Display this help and exits.

Well, it requires at least a minimal commitment.

If it were a bug then much more user would experience it. Use polybar.

Really? Status bar as a replacement for panel?
I’ve seen it somewhere with Openbox. A disastrous combination in my opinion.
