Enable Invert the desktop (systemsettings->desktop->desktop effects->invert)
Invert the desktop by using the shortcuts (meta+ctrl+i) then use ksnapshot to take a picture of a window under cursor for example a konsole window.

the resulting image capture is non inverted, see pic here (the konsole window is color inverted before the screencapture, but on capture the output of ksnapshot shows non-inverted image)

Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this project has been unmaintained for many years and I will be closing this bug. Spectacle is the replacement for ksnapshot now. Please test again and file a new bug for Spectacle if you still have issues. Thank you!
