Hi mate!

That can be done in several ways; pick any.

1. Use a nested style. Either use “through 2 Words” (or how much you need), or “up to 1 :” (just type in the “:” in the last field).

2. Use a GREP style (straightforward): “^.+?:”

3. Use a GREP style (exact): “^Figuresd+:”

The latter will only and exclusively pick up a starting 'Figure' text, so it'll automatically ignore lines where this is missing (or misspelled!).
