I am trying to view a xml file in salamander's viewer in hex mode, but it doesn't show the same things like other viewers, for example the first line of xml with UTF-8 encoding - BOM (Byte Order Mark) and xml tag:

The code page is detected by the heuristics detection and could fail (your case). Could you send me your XML file so we can try to optimize our detection routine?
But I think that it shouldn't be enablable in hexa mode
In your case, the displayed characters will change when you switch to the HEX mode and back. We don't think this is a good idea.

OK, I'll send it, but it's not neccessary, it does on every file with extended characters

It's good idea to preserve conversion in right side, where text is showed, but definitely not to convert it's hexa codes in the left

As I understood, this was probably case of xml file (maybe with some unicode encoding). does that mean, that you're already implementing unicode encoding for viewer?
We will add some warning message about applied conversion in text and HEX modes, it will be possible to turn off these messages. I believe this will solve similar problems.
