Current Behavior

When using the Calendar on multiple date mode, if the initial month is November, selecting a date from a different month navigates the view back to the initial month.

Expected Behavior

The calendar month should not navigate automatically when selecting dates from a month that different from the default one.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Open page with multiple date calendar
2. Navigate to a different month
3. select a date

Thanks for the report. The problem here is we animate to the new date when the value is changed, but we do not account for multiple selection. This behavior is valuable for when the value is set asynchronously on a different month than what it shown.

However, this is confusing when there are multiple dates selected because we do not reasonably know which date to animate to.

This has been resolved via #28847 and the fix will be available in a future release of Ionic Framework. Thank you!
