Is Invert / Negative Image possible?

Post by Phlawm53 »

For Capture 5, eval version.

Is it possible to Invert the colors in an image, a.k.a. create a so-called Negative Image?

Other tools I use make it very easy to create negative images. This in turn enables the writing team to quickly differentiate prototype / pre-production screenshot placeholder graphics from production screenshots.

My guess is that Capture doesn't permit this. Assuming this is so, does anyone think it might make a worthwhile enhancement?

Cheers & thanks,

Capture does not permit color inversion.

If you're doing prototype screens, there are other possible methods to use (for example, put a nasty thick border around the graphic, or perhaps use "torn" edging on one of the edges). You can then associate that with a profile, and assigning the profile to the graphic will automatically apply the effect.

However, I'm not sure how efficient that workflow would be. I've never tried it.
