1. Describe the bug or issue that you're seeing.

When clicking around in my XML layout file, the XML design preview (split pane on the right) resets the size of the preview to be very small. I would expect that only the focus in the design preview would change and the size of the preview would not change.

2. Attach log files from Android Studio
2A. In the IDE, select the Help..Collect Logs and Diagnostic Data menu option.
2B. Create a diagnostic report and save it to your local computer.
2C. Attach the report to this bug using the Add attachments button.

3. If you know what they are, write the steps to reproduce:

3A. Download Android Studio Giraffe | 2022.3.1
3B. Select any emulator for the design preview (e.g., Pixel 5 API Tiramisu)
3C. Select API level 33 for the design preview
3D. Select any layout file that has nested view elements and click around the layout file at various levels.

Example layout file nesting structure:
ConstraintLayout
>SwipeRefreshLayout
>>NestedScrollView
>>>ConstraintLayout

In addition to logs, please attach a screenshot or recording that illustrates the problem.
