Alignment problem while using Vim Airline

[ajmathews]

Versions

ConEmu build: 161206 x64
OS version: Windows Version 10.0.15058 Build 15058 x64
Used shell version (Far Manager, git-bash, cmd, powershell, cygwin, whatever): Bash subsystem for Windows

Problem description

Whenever I open Vim with vim-airline enabled, the positioning of the bottom row seems misplaced. The colon ':' always appears on the second last line at the end. The typing cursor also appears 1 character away from the actual position. Please see the screenshot below,

Expected results

This is the expected behaviour. I see this when I disable airline.

With airline enabled, it works on the Windows bash terminal,

Why did you crop the screenshot? Where is the StatusBar?

[ajmathews]

No reason. Is this what you want?

[Maximus5]

Almost. What is shown by "Terminal modes" status bar column?

[ajmathews]

Says XTerm.

Two notes.

1. Seems like you are not using connector: http://conemu.github.io/en/CygwinMsysConnector.html
2. Actual build at the moment is 170402.

Anyway, I think that it's not a ConEmu bug.

Thanks @Maximus5 . I moved to the preview build now and it looks better. Couple of points id you don't mind commenting,
1) There is a blank line at the end though (screenshot) I get why this happens.
2) Also, would you be able to tell me which connector I would need to install, Cygwin, MSYS or MSYS2?
3) I have lost the ability to press up and down to go through the command history. I believe this is because the Terminal Mode has shifted to Windows after I installed the new build. It works when I change it to XTerm.

Generally you need connector for cygwin/msys when you face cygwin/msys bug. The WSL is expected to be working properly without it. If not, you shall report the problem on the WSL issue tracker.

I believe if you would use predefined {bash} Task you will not see keyboard problem.

For now when I switch it to Xterm it is working fine for me. That is all I need :)
Really appreciate the help! I will close the issue.
