Crossword Genius

Fussy detail (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

particular

I believe this is a double definition.

'fussy' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'detail' is the second definition.
('particular' can be a synonym of 'detail')

(Other definitions for particular that I've seen before include "Respect" , "certain" , "going into detail" , "Fussy" , "item" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph and The Times.
