Regarding question #2, did you create a matching "ubuntu-mate-custom.xml" in /usr/share/mate-background-properties ?

(1)
I'll get back to you on the resolution question.

(3)
Regarding the tool tips, can you tell me if there a way to disable them in Mate for the panel?
(For example, is there a right click configuration menu, or can it be done from a settings app?)
If so, it would be possible to apply the same setting when you are working in Cubic.

Look at comment #8 is the linked question on setting the resolution.

You may want to put .xprofile in the /etc/skel folder so it is used for all user accounts.
You may alteratively be able to add the same contents to an xorg.conf file in /etc/x11.

If you're not using Wayland, this probably still works...

# Reference: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution

# 1. Get the modeline for your desired resolution.

$ cvt 1920 1080 60

# 1920x1080 59.96 Hz (CVT 2.07M9) hsync: 67.16 kHz; pclk: 173.00 MHz
Modeline "1920x1080_60.00" 173.00 1920 2048 2248 2576 1080 1083 1088 1120 -hsync +vsync

# 2. Create a /etc/X11/xorg.conf with the modeline.
    - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
    Section "Monitor"
        Identifier "Default Monitor"
        Modeline "1920x1080_60.00" 173.00 1920 2048 2248 2576 1080 1083 1088 1120 -hsync +vsync
        Option "PreferredMode" "1920x1080_60.00"
    EndSection

    Section "Device"

for tooltip, i disabled them in dconf editor, but its not worked.
its not even working on the live system. It seems the option not functional.

What is the key you are setting in dconf editor?

In Ubuntu Mate 20.04.1, I believe the correct key should be

    - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
    org.mate.panel tooltips-enabled
    - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Try the following...
    - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
    gsettings list-keys org.mate.panel tooltips-enabled
    gsettings get org.mate.panel tooltips-enabled tooltips-enabled
    gsettings set org.mate.panel tooltips-enabled tooltips-enabled true
    gsettings set org.mate.panel tooltips-enabled tooltips-enabled false
    gsettings reset org.mate.panel tooltips-enabled tooltips-enabled
    - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Nevertheless, you probably already know that can not use gsetings to persist the key values when customizing an OS in Cubic's terminal. Instead you need to create a gschema override file such as "/usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas90_ubuntu-mate-custom.gschema.override". Add the following to the file:

    - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
    [org.mate.panel]
    tooltips-enabled=false
    - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

* ..gschema override file such as "/usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/90_ubuntu-mate-custom.gschema.override".

Can you help with this problem?
