Adjust ISO with access to exposure settings?

Apologies if this has been asked before...  I have a GX7 that these days I usually leave in Auto ISO, but there are situations where I like to adjust ISO manually and wish that I could do it without covering up the exposure settings. Right now, to adjust ISO I have to press the ISO button and then the ISO menu pops up over the bottom of the screen, preventing me from seeing how my choice impacts the aperture and shutter speed settings. I tried to assign ISO to the front dial but that doesn't seem to be an option.

So, my questions are:

  • Do any of the newer rangefinder-styled cameras allow a different way to do this?
  • Alternatively, would using the Leica 15mm allow me to use the aperture dial there and then assign one of the dials (on say, the GX85) to be ISO? 

FYI, I usually shoot in aperture priority for stills and manual for video. Any other approaches would be welcome. Thanks in advance.
