Morphology

changeless = change (transparent) = change + less

Productive negative formation with '-less' meaning 'without', so the meaning 'without change' is directly derivable from 'change' + '-less'.

Etymology

Changeless is simple to remember: it is change ('to make different') plus less ('without'), like in hopeless. So changeless means 'without change', staying the same over time.
