Error during capture stitching caused by overridden Object constructor

What's your operating system, and the version of Atom you're using?

[marchingon12]

I'm running Manjaro KDE (Arch Linux based), Atom version 1.50.0 x64.
Steps to reproduce:

• right-click anywhere within code and 'Take Code Screenshot'.

p.s. it now works for some reason, I have not changed anything.

Apparently in some circumstances the constructor name for every single object object is set to NativeImage (?!). Sample from the developer console inside Atom:

> new Object().constructor.name
< "NativeImage"

This throws the merge-images dependency off guard, resulting in the above error.
If someone can figure out why this happens, I would really like to know.

Sometimes the constructor is not overridden. I reloaded the Atom window several times and the behavior was pretty much random.

Suggestions for how to approach this are very much welcome, as well.

It seems that Electron had a few problems of that sort, e.g.:

electron/electron#22820

electron/electron#20637

I think this is no longer a problem with Atom 1.52+ because of an internal Electron update. Can you confirm the issue is resolved?

Closing because there was no more action on this issue.
