Is there a setting or keyboard shortcut to toggle to Messages pane automatically when running a project? I’m going nuts having to select it each time before hitting CMD+R. Thanks!
No, but if you have a Build Script, you can add the following:
DoCommand("ToggleMessages")
It’s up to whether to have the Build Script run for Debug only or Release (or both).
Oh, in the Settings/Options dialog, under “Debugging” there is a checkbox for “Hide Find/Errors/Messages panel on run”. I always have this unchecked, not sure what happens if this is checked with the above DoCommand suggestion.

That works for me if Messages aren’t showing.
However, if the messages tab is already showing, it gets hidden.
I used @Scott_C advice, but also added the line DoCommand(RunApp), now instead of hitting CMD+R I hit OPT+CMD+1 to run the script and get exactly what I needed. Thanks Scott!

Oh, sorry. I had another DoCommand buried that runs prior to “ToggleMessages”, so I think if you do the following together in the Build Script, it’ll work:
DoCommand("Find")
DoCommand("ToggleMessages")
Then the messages pane is always displayed, regardless of the what is already open or not.
