Is there a way to hi light /mark out wall the will be moved, Demo or new framing  in a different color?

If your version doesn't allow you to modify the wall type to change the color or definition, you can still use the "Hatch Wall" tool to apply a hatching (which you can change to a solid color) to indicate those types of walls.

Pro 2016 has a "Hatch Wall" tool where you can use it to mark walls of your choice with a hatched fill. It is found under the "Build Menu - Wall - Hatch Wall", the hatching can be turned on or off in "Display Options - Wall - Hatch Wall" after you mark the hatch walls. This is explained in the Reference Manual under the section covering Wall Tools - Hatch Wall tool. Where you might want to show where demo walls used to be, you use 2D CAD in your as built copy of the plan and then "copy-paste-hold position" those outline CAD lines into your remodel plan, usually using a "dashed" line style. Adding a text annotation with an arrow is also a good idea to further delineate what they represent.
