Hashcat GUI limit on parameter -s (Words Skip)

[KZug]

Hello All,
I am extremely new to Hashcat GUI, hence I might have to remove a "foot in mouth" more than once. No need to worry, I have the pliers right next to me. This being said:

I have noted a limit on the parameter --words-skip of 999999999
(999,999,999)
Is this normal or I am missing something?
Is there a way to increase the limit? If I pause now, using the max length parameter, when re-starting, I would have to go back to previously tried mask combinations.

Thank you in advance.

Yes you can. I think you have to switch from GUI to commandline.
