Hi Robert,
I have done some more testing and I believe I have proven that the issue is not resolution as such, but the Windows Text Scaling feature (but as the default for text scaling is partly linked and driven by high resolutions perhaps its not such a big difference).
In 1920 x 1080 at 100% Text Scaling (the default) the checkboxes appear.
At 3840 x 2160 at 100% Text Scaling the checkboxes appear (but Windows secretly ups the Text Scaling when you move to 4k resolution, so you have to set it back manually)
At 'any' resolution with > 100% text scaling the checkboxes do not appear.
Windows 8.1 does some pretty clever stuff when you have more than one monitor with different resolutions; I think it tries to do some funky scaling-on-the-fly (e.g. windows rescale as you drag them from one monitor to another) but something about this also seems to introduce some kind of scaling that hides the checkboxes. The tests above changed both monitors to the noted resolution.
This is the first application where I literally could not see a screen element at all in 4k with Text Scaling! There are plenty of apps where icons and screen elements get pretty small and do not scale appropriately, but they are still easy to use if you have familiarity with the app already. / comments

I am running a full 4k resolution: 3840 x 2160.
Changing one or both monitors down to 1920 x 1080 (and text scaling back to 100% / Normal) still does not improve the situation - but at the moment I have only made the resolution change and reopened SSMS. When I do that it seems something about Text Scaling may still be active as the text is basically larger than the rows in the table in this dialog. (Windows warns when you change text scaling that some settings only get adjusted when you logout)
I will rerun the test after sending this response, but set resolution, log out and back in again, and I will report what I see. / comments

Many Thanks Stefan,
It happens that the PC I do my SSMS work on is not technically the same PC where I do my development, so I had not installed Tortoise SVN on that machine. Now I have done (and connected to our SVN server and allowed the self-signed certificate) that SQL Source Control is now functioning.
Many thanks for your suggestion,

Hi Anu,
Yes - I can browse to the SVN repository from the same machine, but as you would expect the modern browsers will warn about the self-signed certificate! (I accept that self-signing on our SVN is not ideal; but it has been in place for some time).
Remember - this same repository is working fine when I access it from another computer with a slightly earlier version of ToolBelt on it... and I used to be able to access it from my current computer before I did the upgrade.
I will endeavour to send you the full error text by email,
