[Version 11.0.0] Strange behavior of the "Go back (Alt+Left)" button in the new Custom Dialog Box

Hello all,

I have noticed a strange behavior with the "Go back (Alt+Left)" button in the new Custom Dialog introduced in version 11.0.0.

In the following testing video, I first open the "Open File" dialog. The initial folder is set to C:\Users\user\Documents, which contains a subfolder named C:\Users\user\Documents\Sample Folder. Based on this setup, I repeated the following steps for both the System Dialog and the Custom Dialog:

  1. Double-click "Sample Folder".
  2. Press the "Alt+Left" shortcut key to go back to C:\Users\user\Documents.
In the first half of the video, I operate the System Dialog. As expected, it only takes a single press of the "Alt+Left" shortcut to go back every time.

In the second half of the video, I perform the exact same steps using the Custom Dialog. However, when going back in Step 2, the number of times I need to press "Alt+Left" strangely increases by one with each repetition. If you try this yourself, you will see how extremely odd this behavior is.

Furthermore, in version 11.0.0, this common module seems to be shared not only by the Custom Dialog but also by the Home screen under the File tab -> Open menu. As a result, the same strange behavior can be confirmed there as well.

Hoping that the above information will be of some help to you.
Thank you for your hard work on this great software.

Best regards,
