I can't figure out why that's happening, since file dialogs halt the 
script until they are closed.

You could avoid the whole issue by not using the screen coordinates 
(which capture everything) and instead use the card as the reference. 
That will capture only the card's bitmap and will ignore any other 
windows that are open.

  export snapshot from this card to file UserFileName as JPEG
