I have downloaded many images into a segmentation project and I would like to use all of the exact same images for a detection project. Is there an easy way to create. a new detection type project and copy the image dataset to the new project so I can annotate them with bounding boxes instead of polygons?

Hey @clturner

You can duplicate a project and select a different project type.
