Change an Azure DevOps project to use an inherited process

Can I change an Azure DevOps project to use an inherited process?

Background:

I created an Azure DevOps project, and then later realized that the default Agile process doesn't have the work item types that I needed. Based on this hint in the UI:

System processes cannot be customized. To add customization create an inherited process.

I created an inherited process (let's call it Agile++).

Naturally the next step is to change the project to use Agile++ instead of Agile... but lo and behold, I can't seem to change the process associated with the project.

Am I overlooking something really simple? See screenshot below:

Leo Liu-MSFT's answer is no longer accurate in Azure DevOps. Now you need to go to the existing process (under Org settings) and choose the 'Projects' tab. Find the project to want to change the process of and click the ... -> 'Change process' -> select the new inherited process.
