Slicer option being selected as default

I have the following slicer where you can choose to either annonmise or not.

 

Is there a way of having "Anonymise" selected as default?

Currently Power BI does not support fixing up a value on a visual slicer. 

Workarounds you can do are:

a) If report is being published on a workspace and shared with users, just select the value since the Desktop and the value will be selected when published on the web.

b) Create a bookmark that saves that selection and leverage from buttons to go back to that state if slicer is modified.

Hi, thank you for your suggestions.

 

Unfortunately, I can't use any of the options as the list is dependant on another list so it is always changing.
