TL;DR
Is there a way to configure the gummi editor so it is more helpful in showing the location of LaTex errors?
In the default installation of the gummi editor in Fedora, I find it difficult to locate LaTex errors. If I'm typing along and make a error in LaTex then the preview screen suddenly becomes a window saying no preview can be shown. I don't find the information in the "build tab" helpful. The log file in my .cache/gummi directory is often empty.

Is there a way to customize gummi so errors are easier to find? - make it behave like the editor on the forum and display valid LaTex up to the point where there is an error?
