Opening images in on1 from a different program (not Adobe)

If I use XnView to open an image using NIK or Affinity Photo or... or....  , the exact image is opened in the editor and I am immediately working on the image.

If I choose to open the window in On1 PR2019, the browse window is opened, ...then I have to search for the image again. 

Is there setting in On1... or some other way to launch On1 so I can at least have the image selected in the browse window OR open the image in Edit mode??

  You can test by sending it to the Lightroom Stubs, which will open directly in say Effects, in the Program Data directory but I am not sure about Color Profiles etc. as it seems to embed the profile specified in the Lightroom Plugin settings.

  The EXE files are in "C:\ProgramData\ON1\ON1 Layers 2019\Lightroom Stubs"

  Try it out.

  Thank You soo much!

  BUT I'm truly impressed in a negative way how well they have hidden this compared to the previous versions. The browse/DAM functionality that everyone is working on these days are of no use to me since I'm using a dedicated program for that (IdImager Supreme). On1 is my primary editing software, and it seems that I need to relearn quite a few things with the 2019 version compared to the 2018 one...in some months I'll be there I hope, or possibly just in time for the 2020 version...

  Thanks again Don
