    As @jsulm asked you, your buffer data is binary bytes and not "actually printable", isn't it? So how would you expect it to be displayable in a QTextEdit? Everything is working, you need to do something about deciding how you want this binary data to be visibly displayed. For example, if you're expecting it to come out like the bottom pane you show, or like qDebug() chooses to display it, you're going to have write the code to do that, it doesn't happen by magic.

    Sorry.i am new to this. i thought i will be able to see the byte array in textedit as in labview. all the fields of the UDP data corresponds to some sensor data. i just wanted to see if all the data fields are updating correctly first. later i will use the data as i wish to do some other action. is there any other option by which i can see my data and verify it?? the data which i am getting in the debug window is also not exactly the same as the one i am not sending. some data is missing. sorry for wasting your time. let me try first.

      @reshu You could use Buffer.toHex(' ')

        thanks.
        .i tried it already and i am getting the data which i am sending displayed correctly in the debug window.
        qDebug() << "total msg:"<< Buffer.toHex();
        i tried like this . i mean without (' ') single quotes. will it make any change.

        message from: "192.168.10.100"
        message port: 55000
        message: @ // this corresponds to a single byte (ascii value of 4th byte) //qDebug() << " message:"<< (Buffer.data()[3]);
        total msg: "00015a400000000055aa000001000000000000000000000000000000010000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000"

        i want to convert each byte seperately to hex so that i can initiate some other action based on these byte values. can you give the solution for converting each byte of QBytearray to hex.

          @reshu with a (' ') as parameter, it should be like "00 01 5a 40".
          So if you want the hex text seperated byte by byte maybe you can try

          Buffer.toHex(' ').split(' ');
          

          This will return a QList<QByteArray>, from which each one should be a hex of a byte.
          And if you want a specific byte to hex, for example, the 4th (index=3), you can try

          QByteArray(1, Buffer[3]).toHex();
          

          or

          QByteArray().append(Buffer[3]).toHex();

            thank you so much. it worked perfectly. i tried all the three. split and append worked.
            QByteArray(1, Buffer[3]).toHex(); i didn't get properly.

                I never said that it is wrong.
                please refer to the previous msg
                message: @ // this corresponds to a single byte (ascii value of 4th byte) //qDebug() << " message:"<< (Buffer.data()[3]);
                i have to chk each byte of the data for some control action for which i need either decimal or hex value for easiness. its difficult to compare ascii values .that's it.

                  @reshu The second one works on my machine, not sure why not working on yours.
                  But since you can use the third one, that doesn't matter.
                  If your problem is solved, please mark this topic as "solved".
