I have a symbol which I created and placed instances of on various artboards on Pages A and B. I created it without checking the "send to symbols page" option, so the symbol definition lives on Page A. I want to now move it to the "symbols" page. How do I do this without breaking its connection with all its instances and having to select all the instances and click "replace with symbol"?

I tried to cut the symbol definition, but I got this warning:

You can drag the symbol to the symbols page in the layers/pages panel.



I am not aware of way to do this via keyboard shortcuts or menus. I think it has to be done via dragging.
