I need to wrap the sticker around the 4 planar faces and 4 blends of my box.
Have a look at my part
What's the best way with NX6 ?

Thanks in advance

I found by myself but it's not perfect.
I created a single ruled surface around my box with a little offset.
Then I was able to create a visualization material (instead of decal) with Texture Space Uv
It's nearly good but the sticker is inverted !!!
I tried to change the direction to build my surface and also the normal without any success.
I have attached a zip file with prt and jpeg files
Does anybody have an idea ?
Thanks in advance

Hi Didier,
I would say it is a known "limitation"...
You should write an Enhancement Request about it.
( And ask for other enhancements on the UV mapping... :)

You can reverse both curve 1 and curve 2 in the ruled surface, then the image is as expected.

Regards,
Tomas
