Abstract
A background image is displayed on a touch screen of an electronic device. Overlapped with the background image, a semitransparent layer is displayed. When a touch and drag action is detected from the semitransparent layer, the transparency of a touch and drag region is changed. Transparency of the semitransparent layer may be changed according to temperature or humidity.
