What is the easiest way to insert double vias when changing route layers?

If I for example route power supply and change routing layers then I would like to have two vias inserted instead of only one.

 

Hi

only way i know was in P.R. editor was copy and past via whit a small part of a trace
not forgot to fix the via for avoid it dissaperd

probabely it have other way to
 

Turn on tidy respects vias, presume this is for current? If so there are more elegant ways to do this.
 

Adding a copper pour so you have a larger area ro get multiple vias, this is also a lower impedance than a trace with two vias. I always tend to use copper pours when handling any high current, or as the attached axample shows when I want a low impedance connection for a power supply etc.
