How to always show debug window in XCode6 - xcode

I'm having trouble keeping my debug window open in XCode6. Every time I run the code the debug window disappears. I then have to press CMD SHIFT Y to show it again or use the upper right window icon. How do I make the debugger window stay at all times?

Here was a screenshot I was preparing when he got his comment in:
You want the "show" issue navigator item checked to on.

How to view errors/toggle log window in pine script editor?

Maybe a stupid question. I'm new to TradingView and pine script, so please bear with me if there's some simple way to do this...
I figured out how to copy and modify a script from the library. At first, I could see a tiny edge of a window at the bottom of the script. When I saved or attempted to add the script to the chart, the window showed whether the script processed or had errors.
Now, though, I seem to have "lost" that window. How can I display that window? Also, once displayed, how can I make it larger?
Edit:
Here's a screenshot of the bottom of my editor -
Right-clicking on the console (errors) window showed a little pop-up saying:
While my cursor is in the editor window, holding Ctrl (or Cmd on a Mac) plus the backtick key toggles the console window open and closed.
Now, I can see the console log window whether I have errors or not.
you can show/hide the pane with pine scripts with the "_" icon on the right side:
show
hide
On the rigt side next to the "_" icon you can toggle/maximize the pine script window.
Add any error to your script and save the script.
In the lower left corner, you will see a small gray triangle.
Drag it up with the mouse.
The "Show console" was never visible in my browser. Only the "Toggle console", which did not do anything for me.
I tried a different browser and the console showed well. So I figure it was the browser I was using "Firefox".
So, I re-started Firefox, by going to Un-install Programs in Windows, clicking "Remove program", in front of the Firefox logo, which gave me the choice to restart Firefox. I did took that choice and this fixed the problem for me. I hope it helps others.
On Firefox, it may bug and never show it even with the shortcuts (because it becomes a tiny single-line that can't be dragged at the bottom of the page).
In order to fix it without uninstalling firefox: clean the site data for the domain.

Make Xcode 9 Console auto scroll to bottom

My questions is about Xcode 9 IDE.
For some unknown reason, soon after a debug session is started, Console stops auto scrolling to bottom. It stops somewhere in the middle (see screenshot below).
Is there a way to fix this annoying behaviour?
Step 1- Click in the console pane.
Step 2- Hit 'fn' + "โ†’" (The 'End' shortcut on macOS)

Xcode is giving me some Thread 1 error, and iOS Simulator is crashing

Whenever I try to run my project (in Xcode 4.6.3), it launces the iPhone Sim., the 'screen' on it goes black, and Xcode displays this same exact thing every time
If anything else such as code of the XIB's I'm using**, I would be more than happy to provide those. Thanks!!
**XIB's I'm using ---- whenever I try to link a button to a view controller (in a .storyboard file) it won't link. I two finger click (right click) and drag, usually, the view controller I want to link will be highlighted in blue, and then I am able to just tap it in the Sim., and it will do a quick animation to the next VC. But it the VC I'm trying to link it doesn't even get highlighted. Once again, I'm running Xcode 4.6.3. Thanks again!!
The picture in your comment says that it crashes when trying to set a key (admissionsButton) for your ViewController object that doesn't exist. This could happen if you deleted a property in code but the IB link still remained. If you open up IB and go to your view controller, expand the utilities window (the right sidebar) and then go to the far right option that shows connections. If there is something there that says admissionsButton, try deleting it.
In order to give you more help than that, I would need to see a more detailed log of where the crash happens.
That message could be for anything during the execution of your code. I would use breakpoints from the moment of launch and step through it using the debugger window.

How to get Xcode to show its startup screen again?

When I started Xcode I always got a screen that let me choose which project to open, or to start a new project, or a few other options. A few days ago I noticed it had a checkbox that was prechecked that said something like "Always show this screen on startup". Unfortunately, I unchecked it. I thought it would just reopen the last project I was editing but that's not what it does. Now Xcode just launches without opening any window at all so you have to go into its File menu, choose open, and find your project. I want to go back to the previous (default) behavior but I can't find any way to go back.
Does anyone know how to get that opening screen to show again? (It's not in preferences.)
From Xcode 4 and above versions, it's "Window" -> "Welcome to Xcode (โ‡งโŒ˜1)".
On the older Xcode 3, it's "Help" -> "Welcome to Xcode".
If you want to see the window every time Xcode starts, please tick "Show this window when Xcode launches":
Beware that you need to hover over this window to see this checkbox.
Step 1
Start Xcode, go to the top navigation bar called Window, click on Welcome to Xcode it will show you the project screen:
Step 2
Look at the bottom of the welcome screen, there will be "show this window when Xcode launches", tick it:

Xcode 4 - detach the console/log window

Is it possible to detach the console/log window in Xcode 4?
Even better, how?
Go to Xcode preferences, and open the Behavior tab.
Tell Xcode to open a tab called "Debugger" when "Run Pauses" or "Run Starts". Then run it, and break that Debugging tab out into another window (drag it off the tab bar into its own window by just letting it drop outside the current window). Now reform it to your hearts content; it will stay that way. Also don't forget the little controls at the top right of the console window that slide the local variable display out of the way so you can have a full-width console on demand. I am not sure about keyboard shortcuts for that yet.
I usually keep the Debugging tab and one other tab in a separate window, for debugging tasks, and all my other editing tabs in a different window (and the debugging window on a separate monitor with the simulator). With the settings above it also means that, while editing a debugger reaching a breakpoint, it will not interrupt my editing by suddenly bringing forth the console.
Sure, create a new tab, drag it off the original window, and expand the debugger area to be the whole tab. Now, whether Xcode will remember that tab and its placement is another matter. File a bug with Apple to let them know your displeasure.
Taking jshier's advice a step further, you can do File -> New Window, and expand the debug window to take up the entire window. But you have to manually expand it every time you open it. Ugh.
