I'm hardly a heavy user of microtype, but usually when I do use it I
tend to play around with tracking (though not much else: the microtype
manual is 241 pages, so it's easy to waste a lot of time perfecting the
near-perfect).

I usually do (1).

I'm with Richard here: Simple step (1) checkbox might be sufficient.
If someone makes use  of complicated microtype parameters, then
Preamble seems the way to go (instead of the GUI checkbox).

The only question: what happens if user has selected both checkbox and
added a separate  \usepackage[param1]{microtype} call in Preamble?

I think maybe the compatibility option would be worth implementing in
the GUI, but for the most part the options seem pretty specialized to
me, and simply being able to activate microtype might be enough. People
who want more could add it themselves, as now.

microtype usage

2016-02-22 Thread Pavel Sanda 
Hi LyXers,

we will add support for microtype into LyX.

I would like to get some feedback from users who already use this package
about their workflow. Do you

1. just load the package in preamble via \usepackage{microtype}
2. usually add few more parameters via \usepackage[param1]{microtype}
3. use heavy loaded settings to get what you need
?

(I'm trying to figure out how much space for param tuning should
be left for user in the interface.)
