A method for displaying images so that a lower graphical user interface (GUI) object and an upper GUI object do not overlap each other in a specific area in a screen of an electronic device is provided. The displaying method includes detecting a non-overlapping area in a lower GUI object, determining whether upper GUI objects are displayed to overlap the non-overlapping area, and if the upper GUI objects are displayed to overlap the non-overlapping area at least in part, changing a display configuration of at least one of the GUI objects.
