SaveFileDialog of silverlight is giving error "Dialog must be user-initiated"

I am getting an error:

Dialog must be user-initiated

when I am opening the savefile dialog from my silverlight applicaiton I am using below code

Main Button click event :

 private void btnSaveAttach_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            if (EditableGV.SelectedItems.Count == 1)
            {
                PositionAttachment posAtt = new PositionAttachment();
                posAtt = (PositionAttachment)EditableGV.SelectedItems[0];
                SaveFile(posAtt.File, posAtt.FileName);

            }
            else
            {
                RadWindow.Alert("Please select a attachment from the existing attachments list.", null);
                return;
            }

        }

private void SaveFile(byte[] fileByte, string fileName)
    {
        try
        {
            byte[] fileBytes = fileByte;//your bytes here 

            //Show the dialog        

            SaveFileDialog dialog2 = new SaveFileDialog();
            saveDialog = dialog2.ShowDialog();//This line is giving the error

            if (saveDialog == true)
            {
                //Get the file stream
                dialog2.DefaultFileName = fileName;
                string fileExt = fileName.Substring(fileName.LastIndexOf('.'), fileName.Length);
                dialog2.DefaultExt = "All Files|*.*|" + fileExt + "|*." + fileExt + "";
                using (Stream fs = (Stream)dialog2.OpenFile())
                {
                    fs.Write(fileBytes, 0, fileBytes.Length);
                    fs.Close();

                    //File successfully saved
                }
            }
        }
        catch 
        {
            MessageBox.Show("Error in downloading file");
        }
    }

</StackPanel>

This function is calling on a button click. I am wondering that I have a openFiledialog also oon the same page but is opening the dialog successfully without any error. why that savefile dialog is causing an error.

Below is the stack track of the error:

    at System.Windows.Controls.SaveFileDialog.ShowDialogInternal(Window owner)
   at System.Windows.Controls.SaveFileDialog.ShowDialog()
   at IPVWorkbench.Views.AddPositionAttachments.btnSaveAttach_Click(Object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)

This is kinda 'security feature':

Basically, you have to open a SaveFileDialog or OpenFileDialog directly in response to a event that is caused by a user action (e.g. Click), which are only raised on the main thread.
