Invert color of a specific window on linux mint

I'd like to invert the colors of a specific application on Linux Mint 18.2 Cinnamon. I've tried the solutions at ask Ubuntu; [How to trigger a color inversion effect for one window?](https://askubuntu.com/questions/134668/how-to-trigger-a-color-inversion-effect-for-one-window) and the the similar question here; [Invert colors of the active window](https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/20565/invert-colors-of-the-active-window) But both the solutions compiz and compton fail on my system. Has anyone has solved issue for Linux Mint specifically? If so could you provide detailed instructions on how to install and configure?
