I'm having exactly the same problem on Mac OSX 10.11.5, tried LC 8.1.8, LC 9.0.0 and 9.02. Worked yesterday and haven't changed anything overnight so this a major issue for me. Hopefully the cause and solution will be found asap.

Hi Panos
When in debug mode I cannot find any menu with Message Window. When execution stopped then I can see Message Window entry in menu and also Cmd M works. So I think its only an issue when debugging.

I've started using LC 9.0.0 full release and enjoying the new Data Grid functionality.
