Tint element obscurely - right! (11)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

entitlement

'right' is the definition.
(entitlement is a kind of right)

'tint element obscurely' is the wordplay.
'obscurely' indicates an anagram.
'tint'+'element'='tintelement'
'tintelement' is an anagram of 'ENTITLEMENT'.

(Other definitions for entitlement that I've seen before include "Right (to receive something)" , "amount" , "One's due" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
