MacOS – How to capture the screen with accessibility features turned on

accessibilitymacosscreen capture

I'm trying to take a screenshot of my screen with Accessibility display features "Invert colors" and "Use grayscale" enabled, but the resulting screenshot images do not have any of the visual modifications. They appear as if the Accessibility features were turned off. Anyone know how to capture this type of image?

Update: If I capture a movie with QuickTime or ScreenFlow, I get the grayscale effects, but not the inverted colors. Then, I could grab a still from the movie.

Best Answer

  1. Take the screenshot normally, then open the image in Preview.

  2. Press ⌥⌘C to adjust the colour of the image.

  3. Drag the saturation slider down to the minimum.

  4. Swap the colour positions in the histogram.
