the action does not seam to work
Actually, do a Search instead of a Search and Replace, and use (\d+)
unless there’s information afterwards that you want to keep.
Or use a search and replace, with a regex search of:
([^\d]*)(\d+)(.*)
and a replace of
$2

Use a KM Action "Search Variable":
^(.*?) *\(
Set Variable 1. to "Trimmed Result"
This also eliminates any spaces between the desired text and the opening parenthesis.
Note that if your "Source_Text" is multi-line, then this will find and trim ONLY the first instance of the matched text.
