The key to using vias to make footprints is to make sure you have a
suitable grid.  You either have grid snap turned on, in which case you
need the grid to be right, or it's off and you'll never position it
where you want.

Alternately, use one of the many scripting languages or footprint
tools to build it parametrically, if it's that kind of footprint.
