Crossword Genius

Setter, on reflection stopped and revised (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

emended

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

'revised' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'setter on reflection stopped' is the wordplay.
'setter' becomes 'me' (the setter of the clue).
'on reflection' is a reversal indicator.
'stopped' becomes 'ended ' ('end' can be a synonym of 'stop').
'me' reversed gives 'em'.
'em'+'ended'='EMENDED'

'and' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for emended that I've seen before include "Edited" , "Altered" , "Corrected, revised (a text)" , "Refined" , "Made corrections" .)
