Viewing full error messages in complex queries?

Hi. I'm new to Workbench but not MySQL.

Is there an easy way to see the text of the error message returned by the MySQL server when working on a complicated query in MySQL Workbench?

For instance, frequently a query will return an error and MySQL Workbench will display a X to the left of the line of the query,
but it won't show me the full error message.
The error appears in the "Action Output" panel at the bottom, but there it is truncated:



It seems I have to mouseover the last line of Action Output and
*wait* for the tooltip to pop up to see the full error message:




This is fairly annoying. Is there a better solution?

A way to make Workbench show the full error in a visible fashion
without having to navigate a UI that requires careful mouse
positioning dexterity or waiting for a tooltip?

Thanks!

P.S.: I hope the screenshots come though!
