Default
When you insert a shape it is already selected and the format tab on the ribbon is activated. Change the shape fill and outline to give you the results you want. You can right click and set that as default if you wish, though frankly required shapes tend to be different each time. It might be preferable to save your preference as a formatted autocorrect entry (which you can insert as often as you wish).

Also on the right click button is the command to copy the selected shape. When copied it can be pasted to provide another means of producing a duplicate.
