Feature Request: Highlight Code in Documentation Popup

[getBoolean]

The class constructor/method is not highlighted in the documentation popup that appears when the mouse is hovered over any code. Highlighting this would make it much more readable for classes with many parameters in the constructor. (This issue also applies to dart code blocks in code documentation comments).

Not sure if there is an existing issue open for this. I did search for anything that could be related but didn't find one.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Open any Dart/Flutter project
2. Move the mouse over any class constructor
3. See the constructor in the documentation popup is not highlighted, but is in VS Code
4. Additionally, dart code blocks are not highlighted in the documentation popup, but are in VS Code

Intellij/Android Studio:

VS Code:

BUMP!

I found a plugin that can achieve similar functions JB Marketplace

@mdddj thanks! This is awesome. I think showing the entire class for a type/method is excessive, but it's better than what we have currently.

Is there/will there be an update on this. I've resorted to using VSCode for my flutter work as it I find this feature essential, but I'd much rather be using Android Studio/Jetbrains Product. For me this is a deal breaker.

@ashleymorris2 No contributor has responded so it is probably not coming anytime soon unless someone contributes a PR for it
