Abstract

In one implementation, a method of displaying overlapping objects is performed at a device including an optical see-through display, one or more processors, and a non-transitory memory. The method includes obtaining a request to display a first object in front of a second object. The method includes modifying a transparency of the first object in a region corresponding to an overlap between the first object and the second object. The method includes displaying the first object in front of the second object while maintaining visibility of the second object through the overlap between the first object and the second object based on the modified transparency.
