I traced this error to this line: https://github.com/jarvisteach/appJar/blob/0b59ce041da2197dcff3410e20f298676f1f7266/appJar/appjar.py#L4618

I changed pointinghand to arrow according to some information I found here: https://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.4/TkCmd/cursors.html specifically, this section:

This resolved the issue for me. Putting this here so people searching for this error may one day find relief.
