Is "transformed and shown in error" one big anagram signal?

Oh, wait, no, it's a triple clue, isn't it: sounds like "Ee no file", anagram of "of noun lifted", and it's shown when there's an error.

By my reckoning, CALF (CAL + F = idol) could also be a solution although, had that been intended, the definition would probably have been, um, beefed up.

Edit: Admittedly, Cal is sometimes used as an abbreviation for California, not necessarily for Californian, but you get my drift.

You could argue that that's a better answer actually, as it gives the clue a much better definition part.
