How can I run Power Drafting in NX 11.0? 
There is no shortcut available to start NX in Power Drafting mode. 



Solution

NX Power Drafting the product and functional control in NX existed up to and 
including NX 9.0. In NX 10.0 and beyond it is replaced by NX Layout. 
So for instance in a NX11 standard installation there is a NX start shortcut 
named "NX11.0 Layout" which is the equivalent to Power Drafting. 
To manually run NX in Layout mode run the following command: ugraf.exe -layout


Inside a standard NX session there is also a "Layout" role that will limit NX 
menus to what NX Layout product offers.
