Retain hidden/shown button state on SCORM re-entry?

Captivate 9, responsive project, hosted in Moodle LMS.

I have smart shape buttons in my project's question slides which are hidden until a learner answers correctly, at which point they are shown. When a learner exits a lesson and returns later, the answers they provided are retained, but the button states are not. I assume I need to be reporting the button state as a quiz interaction to my LMS in order for it to be preserved. Is this the case? How can I do that? How else might I retain the buttons' states across multiple sessions? I could tie their visibility to a function that shows them if the answer associated w/ the question ID is not an empty string, but I'm also not sure how to query cached answers.

Any help is much appreciated! Thank you.

    The states would need to be tied to a variable, Variables are stored in the suspend_data, so they should be retrievable, with the exception of TEB variables associated with the TEB itself. You would then need to perform an advanced action to check that variable and show the item.

      That is SO MUCH simpler than I was thinking. Thank you! All is now working well.
