regex clean column

Hello everyone,

 

I am very new to regex and i can't seem to make it work for my issue, but i think it might be the right solution.

 

I have a column with image sizes that look like this 

 

Capture.PNG

 

and i would like the end result to be just a column with the sizes as so "320x50" , "1200x250" no matter if the sizes are 

 

I put the file sample in :)

 

if there is a way to do it without regex its good too

 

thank you so much for your help

@Nouha Probably a simpler way to do this in one expression, but parsing it into two groups using

 

(\d+)(?:\D)(\d+)

and then putting the first and second marked groups back together seems to work just fine based on your sample.

Hi @Nouha 

 

Not the fanciest solution, but it works pretty well.
