Hole Standards Drop Down Menu Default Selection

Hole Standards Drop Down Menu Default Selection

(OP)
We've setup a few of our standard files for threads, so no problem there. I'm just wondering if there is a way to make the drop-down box by default select one of our standards? For instance, in the attached JPG image, when we go to put a hole in, we first have to check the "Threaded" box. Then, the drop-down box defaults to "No Standard". Is there a way to make that default to "UNC" for example? That's the one we mainly use and it would save some mouse clicks.

Similar question for the second JPG. We have standards setup for countersunk holes. But when we select "Countersunk" it again defaults to "No Standard" instead of one of our XML files.

Just wondering if there is a work around for this. Thanks.
