Auto-complete in a Spyder IPython console

Question

Is there a straight-forward way to get a Spyder IPython console to support autocomplete?

I find Spyder's autocomplete functionality, provided in the standard python console, to be useful. For example:

I'd like to switch to an Ipython console (within Spyder) but it doesn't seem to provide autocomplete. Is there an easy way to enable it?

Spyder version 2.3.5.2

Answer 1

( Spyder dev here ) Sorry, but there is no support for autocomplete in the IPython Console.

That's a separate project that we just embed in Spyder, so we can't do anything about it (other than waiting for someone to add support for it later on :)
