I use Rectangular Pads for Top Layer, Bottom Layer. Round Pads for Internal Planes. I check the 'Use Pad Stack' to accomplish this at the PCB footprint library level.
I don't need rectangular pads on the internal planes.

Filter Kind is Pad Specification. Hole, XY dimensions match. Rectangle box is checked. Am I missing something?
