I'd a slim chance of getting lost (7)

I believe the answer is:

mislaid

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'lost' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)

'i'd a slim chance of' is the wordplay.
'i'd a slim' can be anagrammed to 'MISLAID'.
But, I am not clear how the anagram is indicated.

'getting' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for mislaid that I've seen before include "Temporarily lost" , "not to be found?" .)
