Abstract
Some examples described are directed to detecting that an object in a graphical user interface (GUI) obscures presentation of a first portion of a word below the object in a layering order of the GUI. A second portion of the word is displayed in the GUI. Some examples are further directed to evaluating the second portion of the word against a plurality of words prohibited for presentation via the GUI. Some examples are further directed to detecting, in response to evaluation of the second portion of the word against the plurality of words, that the second portion of the word is one of the plurality of words. Some examples are further directed to modifying presentation of the word in response to detection that the second portion of the word is one of the plurality of words prohibited for presentation via the GUI.
