I am running AutoCAD electrical 2013, and current am expierencing an issue where AutoCAD will stall or wait after I try to run any project wide related command (Title Block Update/Plot Project/Drawing List/etc). After turning on the command trace, and MDB command trace, the command window is consistantly stalling/waiting when the following command is displayed:
IN:wd_proj_dwgdsplst
OUT:wd_proj_dwgdsplst
This stall occurs with all of the projects that I am working on, thus it does not seem to be project related. Any insight or fix for this issue would be greatly appriciated.
Hello,
Have you made the command prompt on the fly in the command line? if not, please input the CLIPROMPTUPDATE in the commandline, and set the value to 1, then run the project wide related command, then you will see the command is running and there is prompt in the command line, and see if everything is ok after the command is finished.
If the problem is still there after you do such change, please email me your project, we will have a look at your project and see what is the problem. My email is zhonghua.shou@autodesk.com
And also have a try for the project wide command for the default WDDEMO or IECDEMO, check if the issue also happens for the default projects in ACE2013.

I noticed how to fix this on another post. I have pasted the reply to the other post below with the solution for this. Thanks.
At step 5, you should see the dialog moving with the mouse. Park it anywhere you'd like and that should do it.
