This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since September 2016.

The invert() CSS function inverts the color samples in the input image. Its result is a <filter-function>.

filter: invert(50%);

filter: invert(70%);

<section id="default-example">

    width="200" />
</section>

Syntax

invert(amount)

Parameters

amount Optional: The amount of the conversion, specified as a <number> or a <percentage>. A value of 100% is completely inverted, while a value of 0% leaves the input unchanged.

Formal syntax

<invert()> = 
  invert( [ <number> | <percentage> ]? )
