How to give space to drop cap and paragraph style in InDesign?

Hi,

Screenshot 1. I made a drop cap and paragraph style.

Screenshot 2. I gave some space to drop cap with ⌥ + →.

I can't remove the plus sign to the paragraph style, keeping the space to drop cap.

Is there any better way to give space to drop cap?

Character style definition for tracking ("Laufweite") is set to "ignore" (no value):

Tracking ("Laufweite") set to value 50:
