How to make a particular table visual automatically selected/active when a report is first displayed

I have a table visual on a page in a report on the server.

I have setup some filters for that table visual.

Some of the filters I need/want can only be applied to the visual (and not at the page level).

When the report/page is first displayed the page filters are displayed (not the visual filters).

I (and the user) don't care about the any page filters that could be made available/visible, only the table's filters.

However when that report/page is initially displayed, those visual filters are not visible (you have to click on the table (select it) to display those filters in the filter pane).

 

Is there a way to make my table visual automatically active/selected when the page report is displayed? - which means the user will know about/see the filters necessary to control my table visual.

 

Thanks,

Jess
