Morphology

panoramically = panoramic (transparent) = panorama + ic + ally

Adding the productive adverbial suffix '-ally' to the adjective 'panoramic' clearly forms an adverb of manner.

Etymology

Panoramically comes from pan- meaning 'all' and -orama meaning 'view', the same pieces you see in panorama. So, to describe something panoramically is to show the whole scene or a very wide view at once.
