OK, that's fine. It must be a bug in our code, then.

Aha. I suppose that by "black colors" your mean 0,0,0. This is 
floats, so color components run from 0 to 1. 1,1,1 would be white, 
0.5,0.5,0.5 would be gray.

Let's find out why. Edit the body of this method: void Color::set(const 
OpenBabel::OBAtom *atom) add add qDebug()'s to see what's going on. Is the 
if(!atom) exiting the method prematuredly? If not, can you check the 
std::vector rgb returned by OpenBabel?

Uh, now that's strange. setting m_red to 1 should make a visual 
difference (everything should look more red, at least not black)! If it 
doesn't, that's a separate bug. I prefer to believe that we 
didn't understand each other.
