Inverted display

[georgethecat]

Hello,

In a moment of weakness I slammed my hand on my keyboard yesterday (Not a good idea) which resulted in the display becoming inverted. I restarted my machine and the start up was as normal, with the blue screen and spinning colour disk but when it reaches the desktop it reverted to a inverted black and white look. I have tried changing monitor display settings and check the leads all to no avail.

Has anyone had this problem before if so please, please help before I have to reinstall my osx and software.

George

Go to your Universal Access Preference Pane and change it there.

You can also hit "Control-Command-Option-*" or "Control-Command-Option-8" to toggle back and forth.

What is the word? Ah yes:

Contortionist!

 

[nb3004]

how would you be able to contort your head though?

 

[ElDiabloConCaca]

Head? Where did he say he used his head?! Now THAT would be impressive -- his head would have to span over 8 inches flat on one side to hit that combination of keys! WOOHOO!

He said "hand" guys...
I slammed my *hand* down...

 

[adambyte]

lol. Oops. Excuse my speed-reading innacuracy.

Hand? Psh! It's STILL odd that he did that!

Like I said, contortionist.

There was a contortionist on Whose Line Is It Anyway tonight. Huzzah...

 

[ElDiabloConCaca]

Yep, I saw the contortionist -- CLASSIC! That was hilarious.

I think they're trying to improve the ratings of that show. Last time I watched, they had 2 twin belly dancers. Huzzah!

I did the same thing by having my keyboard fall and trying to grab it.

Option/Control/Command-8 gives me a reversed grayscale screen. Is there a keyboard command to convert to regular grayscale? That would be neat.
