Methods and systems are disclosed for configuring a plurality of tiles displayed in a graphical user interface. In some embodiments, the method comprises receiving an initial state of the tiles, wherein the initial state includes two overlapping tiles; deriving, via the one or more computer processors, one or more secondary states from the initial state by rearranging the tiles in the initial state; calculating one or more scores for the initial state and the secondary states; and determining, based on the scores, a selected state from among the initial state and the one or more secondary states as a display state to be displayed on the user interface.
