Hi Jean,

Try changing some settings in the Color Dialog Box by selecting Nets and
Disabling Custome Colors.

Highlighting is set or unset by right clicking and choosing Set Highlight
State or Clear Highlight State, respectively.

To prevent custom color from displaying in both the Nets tree and the
design, right click and choose Clear Custom Color. (A color box without a
color assigned to it has no custom color state.) These custom color and
highlighting states affect the display of the element as follows:
