Morphology

uninverted = inverted (transparent) = un + invert + ed

The word is formed by adding negating 'un-' to 'inverted', producing the literal sense 'not turned upside down', which is readily understood.

Etymology

Uninverted is un- 'not' plus inverted 'turned upside down', so think of a cup that is not turned over. That's why uninverted means something stays in the same position and is not turned over.
