You need to add your own LIMIT clause to then end of your query.
Use a number greater than the possible number of items that will be returned, say LIMIT 100000.

Update:
(Using version 5.2.29CE, not sure how up to date I am):
On the menu bar visit Edit -> Preferences.
Jump to the SQL Queries tab.
In the Query Results section at the bottom untick the Limit Rows option.
You can adjust the limit to a higher value from this location as well, if that is preferable.
Update:
(Using version 6.3.4.0.828)
On the menu bar visit Edit -> Preferences.Expand SQL Editor.Select SQL Execution.
In the SELECT Query Results section, you can either uncheck Limit Rows or increase/decrease the Limit Rows Count.

Adding a LIMIT clause to a query:
- When constructing a MySQL query, the LIMIT clause is used to restrict the number of rows returned in the result set.
- In the context provided, the instruction is to add a LIMIT 100000 clause at the end of your query.
- This ensures that the query will return a maximum of 100,000 rows, preventing an overwhelming number of results.
