Gosh, you're right! That's from the old IPython 0.10 days (from 4 years ago!) where Python and IPython consoles lived under the same widget.

I have to update that image. Thanks Adrian for pointing it up.

Cheers,
Carlos

Hi

Sorry, what you’re asking for is not possible by design. In Spyder,
IPython consoles run their kernels as Python consoles, so we need the
last ones to be running the first ones. This lies in some technical
limitations in Spyder internals and it’s kind of confusing but that’s
the situation right now. Anyway, this means that to have an IPython
console in Spyder Light we would need also need to have Python consoles
running in it, which kind of breaks its /light/ nature :-)

Well what is confusing the issue for the OP and others presumably, is the screenshot here:

https://pythonhosted.org/spyder/lightmode.html


It shows an IPython console running.


Besides, you can’t set |ipython| as your interpreter in

|Preferences > Console
|

Only real Python executables are admitted there (e.g. |/usr/bin/python|).

Cheers,
Carlos
