I did have a look at this earlier this year - the idea was/is to be a
second OSM diary entry to follow on from
https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/SomeoneElse/diary/391499 . For
various reasons it didn't get finished - it may need a few steps
backwards first (removing options unused by me to make the replacement
files easier to understand) before going forward again. The resulting
"work in progress" is at
https://github.com/SomeoneElseOSM/osmand_files/tree/WIP2 but it is just
that - an incomplete work in progress. However, it might still be
useful to look at if you're trying to do something similar. I wasn't
trying to add an "extra option" to the standard OsmAnd rendering files,
just to create a drop-in replacement.
That's for offline maps of course - it's straightforward to do for
online maps - just use tiles from
https://map.atownsend.org.uk/maps/map/map.html of the format
https://map.atownsend.org.uk/hot/14/8158/5231.png .

Hello, I was just thinking about doing this myself because none of the
rendering options currently available are suitable for walking in many
parts of the UK where there is a dense network of various designated
and other paths and features. It would be so good to have clearly
highlighted public rights of way. Did you put in a request to include
the designation tag? I don't think designated would be sufficient from
what I have seen of the underlying trail tagging. I will resort to
building my own obf if necessary. Is it just a question of adding
entries such as this?
<type tag="designation" value="public_footpath" ...

Thanks. I got my renderer working to show rights of way in
different colours depending on what they are (footpath, bridleway,
byway, etc) and on whether they're a public RoW or permissive,
etc. Unfortunately, this requires me to generate my own obf files
with a custom rendering_types.xml that includes "designated"
values and the "designation" tag. It would be great if this data
could be included in the standard obf files.

Thanks, everyone. I was just trying to do the same thing, got
bored when it didn't work, and instead decided to go browse

I agree with your motivation, Jonathan: in the UK people are
starting to mark legally designated footpaths with
designation= and if a route looks questionable but someone had
taken the trouble to tag it as official, it would be nice to
be able to check that. I was thinking of adding some sort of
show/hide option to the renderer I use for walking (here
