What is an Invert Colors tool?
An Invert Colors tool reverses the red, green, and blue values in a picture. Light areas become dark, dark areas become light, and colors shift to their complementary opposites.
Invert Colors turns every color in an image into its opposite, creating a negative-style effect for design experiments, accessibility checks, and creative visuals. It is useful when you want a dramatic alternate version of an image quickly.

An Invert Colors tool reverses the red, green, and blue values in a picture. Light areas become dark, dark areas become light, and colors shift to their complementary opposites.
The browser reads each pixel on the canvas and subtracts its color values from the maximum channel value. That mathematical reversal creates the negative effect in the exported image.
