I reported the issue below back in September 2017. It was scheduled for a fix in R1 2018 (here). However, it appears that the problem persists. Did it get missed or is there a setting/option that I'm missing. I think it is a rather major issue for anyone trying to put a DPI aware app together.
This is the problem:
In a DPI aware app, using the docking tool window auto-hide dramatically increases the size of any controls on the window. This can be demonstrated with a new application. Add a RadDock to the form, add a couple of tool windows and a document window, and add a few controls to either of the tool windows (label, button, treeview, property grid, etc.). Run the app as DPI aware at 150 scale. Hide a tool window. Open the tool window. When the tool window slides open all the font and control sizes have greatly increased.

The issue is not missed, we are working on it but it turns out that it is not an easy one. In addition, all issues must pass quality assurance which takes additional time. The issue priority is still not changed. I will recommend subscribing to the status changes (click the follow button). This way you will be notified when there are any updates.
Thank you for your understanding.
