Does anyone have any ideas about how I might get an image object to contain an image
of a card that isn't currently showing, without displaying that card to the user?
More details are listed below.

Details:
I have a stack that looks like a book. When the user goes to the next page, I'd like
to have a nice image of the page turning from one page to the next. The pages of the
book can have different text and sometimes pictures on them.
The shrink and stretch visual effects would be perfect, except that they work from top
to bottom (or vice versa) and I need something that works from right to left.
So my next thought was to use the import snapshot command to set some image objects to
pictures of the current page and the next page, and use those to create the
appropriate shrinking and growing images of the page turning.
But it seems that you can't get a snapshot of something that isn't showing. I know
that's pretty self evident, but still, I was hoping that
lock screen
go next
import snapshot from rect someRect
would get a picture of the next card. Instead, it gets a picture of the current card
because that's what's showing because of the locked screen.
