spyder: edit keeps executing in python, not IPython

I am using spyder 3 to run python and am not sure how to get my session to run IPython.

I launch spyder, then click console, and choose "Open an IPython console." I then see in the bottom right quadrant that there's both a Python and IPython console. I make sure that the IPython console is selected.

I then run some code in the editor:

import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.randn(10, 4))
print(df)

However, when I hit F5, I get this in return:

NOTE: The Python console is going to be REMOVED in Spyder 3.2. Please start to migrate your work to the IPython console instead.

I want to run in IPython and am not sure what I am doing wrong or missing something basic. Any ideas on how I get this to execute in IPython instead?

FYI I am running windows 10 and installed spyder via anaconda.

Thank you.

Installed spyder via anaconda on Win7. Cant reproduce this case.

Things you would like to know:-

They are removing Python consoles from spyder 3.2 and only IPython console will be present.

There is no option currently in spyder to run the code in a dedicated IPython console. This will be added in coming releases.

What you can try:-

Goto IPython console and enter command runfile("path_to_py_file",wdir="working_directory")

and press enter.
