1. An electronic device, comprising:

  • a display;

    a touch interface;

    one or more sensors to detect levels of contacts with the touch interface;

    one or more processors;

    memory; and

    one or more programs, wherein the one or more programs are stored in the memory and configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for;

    displaying, on the display, an object and at least a portion of an interface in a same virtual display layer;

    detecting, on the touch interface, a gesture on the object;

    when a magnitude of a pressure of the gesture being detected on the touch interface on the object is less than a first magnitude threshold, performing an operation;

    when the magnitude of the pressure of the gesture being detected on the touch interface on the object is greater than the first magnitude threshold, blurring, as a function of the magnitude of the pressure of the gesture being detected on the touch interface on the object, the at least portion of the interface, and displaying the at least portion of the interface and the object in different virtual display layers; and

    when the magnitude of the pressure of the gesture being detected on the touch interface on the object is greater than a second magnitude threshold, performing another operation.
