Manual Adjustment of Invert Colors Setting

[MorningSage]

Hi all,

I have opened this issue because somehow enabling Inverted Colors broke the desktop on my machine and I have a black screen when attempting to use Cosmic. However, I understand that the issue may not get fixed immediately because open-source volunteers/holidays/etc.

While I wait for that resolution, is there a way to manually disable the Invert Colors option? I'm still able to use KDE so I have full access to the system files. I deleted the .config/cosmic directory, but the issue persists, so I assume however the setting is saved, it's not in that folder. Cosmic worked before I adjusted the setting, I just can't log back in the normal way to disable it.

Again, I'm not trying to expedite the issue - it will get resolved in its own time. I just want to use Cosmic and hoping there's a manual workaround so that I can do so.

As mentioned by @ashimokawa here: #2750 (comment)

The setting is stored in the file ~/.local/state/cosmic-comp/a11y_screen_filter.ron which can either be:

1. Removed with the following command:
   rm ~/.local/state/cosmic-comp/a11y_screen_filter.ron

OR

2. manually changing the value in the file to false:

 (
-     inverted: true,
+     inverted: false,
 )
