Morphology

reconsolidate = consolidate (semi-transparent) = re + con + solid + ate

Adding 're-' to 'consolidate' clearly gives the meaning 'consolidate again' for this sense.

Etymology

Reconsolidate is made from re- 'again' and consolidate 'make solid or whole', the same root as solid. So to reconsolidate is to bring parts back together into one group or make them whole again.
