As I mentioned in my post, I have this problem while using Linux ((L)ubuntu 15.10 with Mint/Cinnamon). Using Windows 10 on the very same Yoga 2 Pro works just fine with HiDPI, but I rarely use Windows, and would hate to have to boot into Windows to use ImageJ.

The Windows Installation instructions suggest to uncheck "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings", but this seems to have no effect. In developing plugins, it is possible to make dialogs larger by setting them to use larger fonts. In this case, everything scales except the checkboxes.

Try upgrading to Windows 10. By default, it displays ImageJ at a reasonable size on high resolution displays. On a 13 inch, 3200x1800 display, ImageJ “sees” the display size as 1600x900 and everything is twice as big as it would be on a 3200x1800 display. Press “i” (Image>Show Info) get the size of the scaled display used by ImageJ. It’s in the line that starts with “Screen location:”.
