A method for preventing burn-in conditions on a display of an electronic device is disclosed. The electronic device acquires a position of, for example, a task bar being displayed on an OELD screen, extracts a color of a pixel located adjacent to the task bar, and generates an overlay window of a color based on the extracted color. The color of the overlay window is translucent and continuously changes from the extracted color to black with an increase of the distance from the pixel located adjacent to the task bar. The task bar is displayed on the OELD screen with the overlay window overlaying the task bar.
