The 'desktop file' is installed as /usr/share/applications/slic3r.pl-slic3r.desktop It contains a line: Exec=slic3r.pl I propose the line be changed to: Exec=slic3r.pl %f With that change the Slic3r application will be recognized in graphical file managers, like for instance Caja, as an "Open with other application..." entry and we'll be able to just 'double-click' on a .stl file to make Slic3r startup and load the .stl file.

Even better would be: Exec=slic3r.pl --gui %F
Could you please create an issue Upstream (https://github.com/slic3r/Slic3r/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen)?
IMHO it would be better to use the provided desktop file from upstream instead of creating an own with 'make_desktop_entry' in the ebuild.
