Neither. Point and shoot. I knew what I wanted and pointed in the general direction. There were a couple of fails, trust me. I have no idea how to change the focus point.
Gosh that feels so refreshing

Hi Sue, you can assign the Fn1 button to change the focus point. Press it then you can move the focus point with the d-pad buttons.
I've owned two LX100's, I've always used the direct access option that changes the cursor to directly control the AF points. Actually I use it on every Panasonic body. I tend to use P.A.S. and only rarely use full manual so I use auto ISO. I change the WiFi to drive mode since I never use it. I also only rarely change WB so having the dial set to direct focus works the best for me.LOL Thanks for that info, Martin. I tend to only go looking for solutions when I have a problem. I haven't actually read the manual
When I read your comment it evoked a question to myself, "What do I have a thing for?" Looking back at what I've posted here and Flickr the answer seems to be trees. Indeed, I am attracted to trees.
I like so much of what I see from this camera - I'd love to own one. But my thing seems to be shooting people more often than glass (and for glass, the RX1 works awfully well too) and the LX100 is missing at least two features that are absolutely essential for the way I shoot. So I'll never own one. But every time I check into this thread I'm impressed and wish it met my needs better than it does...

Two things. One, an auto-ISO setup with good minimum shutter speed control. Two, and this is something that the LX5 and LX7 had a pretty nice version of, a good distance scale when in manual focus to facilitate zone focus... There are just too many good cameras around today with at least adequate versions of both of these features for me to go with something that doesn't have both, let alone neither. Not that either of these features are particularly important for most photographers, even lots of street shooters. But I seem to have developed a way of shooting on the street that's real dependent on both...I may not own mine for much longer but I have enjoyed it, for sure It works for other things than glass, as well.
Whats missing, for how you shoot, Ray?
