You may be the first to try WSJT-X at 200% font sizes. Obviously you 
need that on a 4K laptop.

We are not really in the position to make direct W32 API calls since we 
Qt for platform independence.

The situation with Qt is as documented here:

http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/highdpi.html

The Qt version in WSJT-X official packages as of v1.6.0-rc1 is Qt 5.4. 
This means that if you install the latest WSJT-X beta release, you can 
try the setting in qt.conf documented above. The qt.conf file is located 
'bin' folder of the installation. You may not need to change the qt.conf 
file as the default setting is "Per-monitor DPI Aware" which should meet 
all requirements.

WSJT-X v1.0.0 was not built with Qt 5.4 and therefore does not handle 
high DPI monitors correctly.
