Default selected value in filter

I have a common filter with some options.
When I do not select any option, the filter show me the value "All".
But this bring to me a wrong result.

I need a default value selected in the filter.

I saw in some discussions here, which Power BI don't give support for this.
Exist a alternative solution for this, without be use the chicletslicer or select a value, save the archive and publish it?

Can someone help me?

Thanks. Priscilla.

It is not supported at this moment. You can check this idea Slicer default selected values and vote it up.

As a workaround, you may use bookmarks.

Bookmarks do not work for me, because they give the options to the user to choose the different views.

And I want, when the user enters the panel, already bring the selected filter, according to the constraint defined.

Any prediction for implementing the default value for the filter?
