I missed it, the via was not inserted until clicking left button on the first line on next layer. I checked the manual before I tried to add code which inserted the via at layer change but did not find it. I will check manual, maybe it could be improved.

pcb work suprisingly well. Commercial EDA tools usually have possibility to set attributes for routing while drawing schematics but if an attribute to select route style could be attached to nets or pins as someone suggested.
