Ruler becomes invisible while answering quests

[mnalis]

https://github.com/streetcomplete/StreetComplete/issues/5765 / PR https://github.com/streetcomplete/StreetComplete/pull/6213 implements a ruler so mapper can judge distances between OSM elements (and new ones they are about to add)

However, while that ruler (scale) is visible on main map, it become hidden as soon as any editing operation is attempted, when it is most needed (it as additionally complicated by the fact that zoom changes while one clicks on quest / overlay to solve, so even distances seen before opening the quest become invalid).

How to Reproduce

• open any quest icon (or alternative click on + or on any clickable element in overlay)
• notice that ruler is now covered by answer window

Expected Behavior

• the ruler would remain visible while answering quest/overlay (i.e. quest/overlay answer window would not be shown over it)

Versions affected SC 61.0-beta1 on Android 14 (Samsung Galaxy S23+)

It's not a bug, but well, you have a point.

The map attribution is also hidden, not sure if that is technically allowed? So a solution could involve fixing both, since they are both in the same box.

Of course it is allowed.
