Assuming your hex editor shows text values as well, then it's exactly the same as searching through the UIFILE.

So do a search for this string (ASCII):
code:
<element layoutpos=top layout=verticalflowlayout(0,2,2,2) padding=rect(2,0,3,2)>

If you're editor doesn't allow you to search for a string that long, then I'll save you some time and tell you that it's located at offset 005c2de7 as can be seen in the image.

Now we have to change the layout position from top to none, so we change layoutpos=top to layoutpos=none

But now we have a problem, there needs to be a space between layoutpos=none and layout=... - ideally we could just add a space, but I've tried that and it corrupts the file, so what we have to do is overwrite the rest of the text within that <element> tag with spaces (20 in hexadecimal).

Notice that I kept the final > because it's needed for the <element> tag.

That's it, save the file.

If you check it in Resouce Hacker now, you'll see that string now looks like this:
code:
<element layoutpos=none                                                        >


Note: I've updated the HEX offsets in the first post for 7.0.0632 and I have added how to change the "View my contact card" string to "Change My Display Picture".
