Thanks for that. Learned something new. Switching map render to offroad in 
map view increased the contrast between footpaths and the background and 
also made the footpaths appear at lower zoom levels meaning I can see more 
area with the footpaths showing still

Is there a way of customising what zoom levels each type of symbol appears 
at? 

Also is there a way to identify what the symbols mean like a context 
sensitive key? E.g. press and hold on a dotted line and select "what is 
this?" And it says footpath or bridleway or whatever. The symbols change 
based on zoom level and map rendering style so it's more difficult to learn 
what each means.
