Issue trying to add route / via

 I am trying to fan out from a BGA component.  Neither the "Create Fanout" or "Fanout by Pick" will fan out all the pins.  So I am trying to do it manually.  But when I try to add a via, it always defaults to <VIA> instead of the via I have selected for all of the signal nets.  I can change this on the Options tab, but I have to change it every time I add one.  Is there a way of changing the default for <VIA> also?  If not this is a serious limitation.

 Also another comment, the editor gets into modes where it seems to change layers on its own or assumes that I want to route, even though I have completed the active command.  Is there a way of setting the software up not to do this?

     Any way of doing this by default?  I keep being told to look at the tutorials, but none of this shows up in the routing tutorial.  I guess I am just supposed to know this stuff.
