Python Add-In does not report to python window

[BenWin]

Hi,

I just began to take a look at the Python Add-Ins. Simple tests with buttons and tools do work, after normal installation. But in my case the Add-Ins do not report any information to the python window (ArcMap 10.1). So the debugging as described in the ArcGIS Help ???guidebook??? by sending ???exceptions??? as well as using the ???print??? statement does not work at all.
Does anyone have an idea what the reasons could be?

Thanks for any help

Can you post a code example of one of your python add-ins?

Here some code example...
Its just some GP Script tool dialog to open on one butten, some print command on another and the exmaple fishnet tool taken from arcGIS helpfile...

I also realised by using the makefile the images are not implemented so the addin only has 2KB and in beginning before populating with futher code it was something around 50kb

import arcpy
import pythonaddins

        self.enabled = True
        self.checked = False
    def onClick(self):
        # Starts Hailtool Dialog
        print "Hailtool started"
        pythonaddins.GPToolDialog("C:\\BW_Workspace\\Toolbox_BW_V02\\Toolbox_BW.tbx", "HagelSchadensableitung")

        The rectangle is a extent object."""

        extent = rectangle_geometry
        # Create a fishnet with 10 rows and 10 columns.
        if arcpy.Exists(r'in_memory\fishnet'):
            arcpy.Delete_management(r'in_memory\fishnet')
        fishnet = arcpy.CreateFishnet_management(r'in_memory\fishnet',

                                '%f %f' %(extent.XMin, extent.YMax),
