Morphology

isometrically = isometric (transparent) = iso + metric + ally

The graphical sense (isometric projection) follows the idea of equal scale along axes from 'iso-' + 'metric', and the adverb is formed regularly.

Etymology

Isometrically comes from the Greek parts iso- 'equal' and metron 'measure', the same idea you see in meter. In drawing or projection it means using the same scale in each direction so objects keep their true shape and do not look stretched.
