Hi,

 

>> Kindly provide solution for this issues.

First I would make sure that you have installed the latest service pack.

 

Then I would ask:

  • is that a new situation or a new installation of AutoCAD 2015, if it worked well previously what changed on the system
  • does the same happen in a new file
  • does the same happen if you close the property window (and disable quick-properties if you have them active)
