Howdy,

TeXShop doesn't stop typesetting. The processing engine (xe/lua/pdf)(la)tex stops processing when it or the format it is using is confused. So the question is really whether there is an option or command to (xe/lua/pdf)(la)tex that tells it to stop on warning messages.

On the other hand, once processing is complete (or aborted) the console window is search-able so you can find the warnings fairly easily. You need only click in the console output pane first to activate it.

Good Luck,
