Description

Hi,

after closing an app written with CustomTkinter, a vere easy app, there are sometimes dpi scaling error messages, though not always.
Like these, from 2 different runs, so this seems to be something dynamically generated

invalid command name "2166016445632check_dpi_scaling"
    while executing
"2166016445632check_dpi_scaling"
    ("after" script)

or

invalid command name "2282063737792check_dpi_scaling"
    while executing
"2282063737792check_dpi_scaling"
    ("after" script)

Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported behavior with a minimal CustomTkinter app that is closed repeatedly, and capture when the dpi scaling messages appear. Investigate the dpi scaling entry point and its shutdown behavior; done means closing the app no longer produces an invalid check_dpi_scaling command.
