Thanks .. I think i found it
To place Via Press (2) From Top Numeric Keypad in Keyboard ..and to place wire in bottom Side Press (L) The same Key that we use when we put Component in Bottom side ..

After I used (2) with (L) to place Via ..it worked then i used (Ctrl+Shift+Moving mouse wheel) it also Do The Same Purpose ...after that surprisingly i tried (+)(-) method it worked !!...i don't know what is going on ..

doesn't " * " work? i use it al the time it just cycles through all via's you have set (layerstack manager -> drill pairs)

also + / - works for me too.. don't know why it should not work for you... unless you were in single layer mode... then they do not work...

nice tip about the crtl shift mouse wheel.. did not know that...
