Description
Most applications I use honor the Xresources setting Xft.dpi. It appears DrRacket partially honors this on my system as the menu bar and tab-bar are the correct hidpi font size, whereas the the toolbar/editor/interactions do not appear to pick up this setting.
Running Racket v8.5 [cs].
Is there an environment variable one should set to set up HiDPI on X11 Linux? Thanks.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue on X11 Linux with the Xresources Xft.dpi setting and Racket v8.5 [cs]. Compare the correctly scaled menu and tab bars with the toolbar, editor, and interactions; done means those remaining UI elements honor the same HiDPI setting or the required environment variable is documented.
