KWin: Toggle grayscale KDE destop effect with script
How can I get a grayscale effect in Kubuntu 18.04 using KWin?Uninstall kubuntu-desktopHow do I customise desktop effects and toggle between comopsiting window mangers in KDE on Ubuntu 10.10?Kubuntu uses random minimize effectsWhat is a activity in KDE and what can I do with it?Upgrade from Ubuntu with KDE Desktop to KubuntuUsing two keyboards in KDE with a dedicated layout each (typically azerty / bépo)kde install problemGraphics issue on Kubuntu, plasmashell failed to startTurning off “Disable touchpad while typing” doesn't work (KDE)KWin scripting - calling a DBus function with callDBus
I'm very new to KDE (running Kubuntu 18.10) and want to be able to quickly toggle grayscale through the terminal. I can make the script to do this but I don't know what to call to toggle the Desktop Effect.
Currently I'm using the extension described in this answer from this Github reop. Everything works great, the only problem is that I want to quickly switch to grayscale instead of going into System Settings
> Desktop Behavior
>Desktop Effects
and click Apply
. This is way to many steps for me to use more than once or twice a day.
My question is what command do I call to toggle this from the command line so I can write a script to do this?
I'm looking at the qdbus and trying something like:
qdbus org.kde.KWwin /Effects toggleEffect Grayscale
But nothing happens.
