Show migrated dataset in Formatted Editor

Using File Manager V14.1 in IDz, when we use the Formatted Editor to
view a migrated PDS, the first time it does not
show the members in the migrated PDS. So when I click "View" it
fails with the message "Member name is required". But the second time
when I try (without doing HRECALL) it works, as the dataset is recalled
due to first attempt. Please provide a way to recall datasets within File Manager or Auto recall migrated PDS immediately (without switching to z/OS perspective)
