bytea output not as hex-string

[RhysSpellbinder]

In the query tool the output of a bytea column is always "[binary data]".

I changed postgresql.conf with
bytea_output = 'hex'
or I executed
SET bytea_output = 'hex'
in the query tool
but a bytea column output is always "[binary data]"

A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Add in the file postgresql.conf the row: bytea_output = 'hex'
2. reload configuration
3. Open the query tool
4. Execute query: SELECT myByteColumn FROM myTable
5. The output of a bytea column is always "[binary data]".

Expected behavior:
The output of a bytea column is like the output of the query
SELECT encode(myByteColumn, 'hex') FROM myTable

Configuration:

• OS: Windows 11
• pgAdmin version: 9.14 (python 3.13.12)
