Hello,
I am still dreaming of the possibility to change colors of individual
atoms using the python interface.
I am using Avogadro 1.1.1. Geoffrey gave the following tip:

Colors in Avogadro 1.0.x are defined by a color plugin, not the atom. In Avogadro 1.1.x, there’s a new property:
atom.setCustomColorName(“red”)

In the python console under Avogadro I then try:
import Avogadro
Avogadro.molecule.atoms[0]
Avogadro.molecule.atoms[0].setCustomColorName(“blue”)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “”, line 1, in
AttributeError: ‘Atom’ object has no attribute ‘setCustomColorName’
Doesn’t seem to work … there is no such method as "setCustomColorName"
in Avogadro 1.1.1.
How can I change the color of a single atom … ? I started to do
research on this already two weeks ago and still haven’t figured
it out… surely it shouldn’t be this difficult.

Sampsa
