Hi @Neleus,
The representation you're looking for is hex. You can switch to the Hex tab in the value panel (right-side menu). CloudBeaver does not add the 0x prefix by default.

Would you like to see the values in hex format directly in the table? Could you share your use case?

IDs is equal, but without prefixes.
Thanks.

I just have a lot of tables that stored values in binary format and when the BLOB is displayed it is not quite clear what is inside, and whether it is valid. You must click and check values manually.
Also sorting values when the BLOB is displayed does not make sense.

Thank you for your clarification. We will consider adding an option to display BLOBs in the table.
