Interactive widget does not do advanced actions if "Visible in Output" not checked

Question

Interactive button widget does not do advanced actions if "Visible in Output" is not checked.

I add an interactive widget to one of my slides and uncheck the "Visible in Output" box.
I have another static, button widget(a) that sets the Interactive widget(b) to visible when the user clicks on it (a). The interactive widget shows, but the advanced actions don't work. If I check "Visible in Output" for the Interactive widget, the interactive widget works as expected, but the Interactive widget is then visible when the user first gets to the slide. I am using Captivate 6. The other static widgets on the slide work fine when hidden and then made visible. Anyone have any ideas why the interactive widget won't work?

I didn't answer because I was puzzled: besides Rod's question about which interactive widget, it seems like you only use it to trigger advanced actions. Is that On Success for that widget? Why do you use a widget instead of a simple interactive object?
