Morphology

unpointed = pointed (transparent) = un + point + ed

The meaning is clearly derived from 'pointed' with the addition of the prefix 'un-' to indicate the absence of a point.

Etymology

The word unpointed is easy to remember: imagine a pencil without its tip, safe to touch. It is made of un- 'not' and point 'sharp end', so it means 'not having a sharp end'.
