OpenGL picking shows nothing after the pick - c++

Question

So I have 2 cubes in a display list and I want one of them be pickable so I can maybe change his color or something like that.
When I click on a cube then the screen turns black and nothing happens, the console gives me output of the closest hit but the screen turns black and doesn't show anything.
Here is my cpp file:
#include "glwidget.h"
#include <QDomDocument>
#include <QDebug>
#include <QFile>
#include <math.h>

camUpx = 0.0, camUpy = 1.0, camUpz = 0.0;
camAngle = 0.0;
camViewz = -cos(camAngle);
camViewx = sin(camAngle);
mode = 1;
timer = new QTimer();
connect( timer, SIGNAL(timeout()), this, SLOT(updateGL()) );
}

this is the normal view without clicking once
http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/233/31536776.png/
then when clicked it keeps getting in startpicking and stop picking and gives a black screen
http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/13/14180995.png/
and then after closing the window so it stops running it gives me this output http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/861/13486229.png/

Answer 1

Could be wrong, but it looks like you aren't resetting your mode-variable back to 1 after the first mouseclick anywhere, so the start- & stopPicking-methods are called on each frame from the first click onwards. If that's not the case, then you probably have some problem with gl-states/matrices not all being reset correctly after the picking.
