Frank, check that your "Temporary Highlight" color is set to something other than the color you use for pins and traces. Under display settings change the temporary highlight color to something like white. When you route in traces on a layer, you should see the pins associated with the net light up in white as you route. There is also a mode called shadow mode "Under Display settings" that can be used to dim the active layer while routing. With shadow mode enabled you can make the highlighting of pins look more pronounced as you route on an active layer. All the best.
