Line 6 Helix: using a Foot Switch Control Assignment, independent from Scenes ?

On my Line 6 HXFX I have an Expression Pedal assigned to control the feedback-amount on a Delay block. This works exactly how I want and expect this to work (the feedback-amount is independent of scenes).

However, if I set a Foot Switch as the assigned-controller, the feedback-amount is no longer transferred to all the scenes of a preset when adjusting that parameter in one scene. In other words, the feedback-amount parameter is now part of scenes.

Can a Foot Switch also be set to control a parameter, independent from scenes, like an Expression Pedal ? And if so, how?

Thnx for your time!
