Move components / block to new page, keep annotation?

Have a growing design. Need to split a schematic into two pages.


So, the pages are in the same schematic folder, and I just want to move some components from one page to another. I have checked "Preserve reference on copy" to no use.
In another ECAD tool I have used we simply moved a selected box from one page to another and case closed, any chance to get the wanted result here somehow?

    Yeah... right!

    Cut and paste does not keep annotation, resetting ref to ?.
    Did you really believe I did not try that one?

    that's strange. I can't get it to reset references to "?". It will renumber if I have "Automatically reference placed parts" selected.
