See this thread: http://www.qtcentre.org/forum/f-qt-programming-2/t-hex-viewer-in-qt-8076.html/?highlight=editor.

But I guess you have many options. You could use even a QTableView with a Qt::NoPen grid.

As for actually displaying hex data and offsets take a look at QIODevice & QFile for reading buffers from files.
