Changing from triangle to new shape (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

altering

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

'changing' is the definition.
('alter' can be a synonym of 'change')

'triangle to new shape' is the wordplay.
'triangle' can be anagrammed to 'ALTERING'.
But, I am not sure how this is indicated.

'from' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for altering that I've seen before include "Modifying, changing" , "Changing -- 1 across (anag)" , "making a change" , "Making changes" , "revising" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
