Description
First off... I'd like to say that the Adaptive Cards Designer has helped me tremendously. I wouldn't have been able to create the adaptive cards that I use without it! With that being said, I do have a couple recommendations.
Firstly, when selecting from an object on the top right tree, you can find what you're looking at in the preview. However, I wish it would do the same for the code at the bottom. Adding a symbol to the side of the code or highlighting the part of the code that refers to what I'm looking at would help tremendously. Preferably something that doesn't move nor rely on the blinking cursor would be great.
Secondly, can we please get a Copy Card Payload that also minimizes the code? My Power Automate Flow generated an error because I quickly created an adaptive card that was over 28 KB. Now I have to remove the whitespace to make it work and it's very hard to read now. After using a 3rd party website to remove the whitespace, I was able to reduce the size from over 28 KB to about 3-4 KB.
Again... THANKS for everything!

Research direction
Start by locating the Adaptive Cards Designer entry points for the top-right object tree, preview, bottom code, and Copy Card Payload action. Confirm how selection relates to the preview and code and how copied payloads are currently formatted; done means both requested behaviors are supported and the copied payload can be minimized.
