Creative Cloud photos won't open in photoshop elements.

If I have a photo in Lightroom CC and say I want to open it in Photoshop Elements, I can't do it. It will open the program but it won't open the picture. I was told this isn't a feature yet. How do I request that feature? I need both of these programs to work together or neither one is any good to me.

I have photoshop elements 2019. If I was told the wrong thing and these will work together, could someone please tell me how?

Thank you.

You have Lightroom CC or Lightroom Classic CC?

What operating system?

I may be wrong about this, but I believe you can only use an external editor (like Photoshop Elements) with Lightroom Classic CC, not Lightroom CC. In order to do this, I believe you need to go to Lightroom Classic Preferences and add the Elements Editor. Choose Custom from the Additional External Editor Preset and browse to the PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe file.

I am sure you are right,. How do I request this feature from Adobe? If I right click a photo in lightroom CC it will let me say open in photoshop, and then I can browse to my editor, and it will open. So they are not that far off.

Thanks again for letting me know that it isn't available now. At least I won't be spinning my wheels trying to figure it out.
