cannot replace when regex in find field

Hi there,

I have a lot of this in my target:

620x260x440mm (24.4 x10.2x17.3in)

Some have no space others have U00A0, U2000 or what so ever following the numbers. I would like to replace all instances of number + unit/x with number+U202F+unit/x.

So I press Ctrl+H and I enter the following expression into the find field:

( ? < = \\ d ) \\ p {Zs}* ( ? = [xmi] )


I check the case sensitive and regex boxes and find nicely all I want.

Now the promblem: I cannot replace it with my U202F nor with anything else. Whenever there is a regex in the find field, the replace field seems not to work anymore.

Why is that? Ideas anybody?
I use Studio 2015 Freelance and the source is a docx, that I got as a package.

Thanks in advance!
Uta
