ListCtrl - is there an event which fires on each select (even if already selected)

Hi,

The ListCtrl wx.EVT_LIST_ITEM_SELECTED only fires ones, which I guess is logical.

I use the ObjectListView which is a wrapper around ListCtrl and it has an option to check items, which one can then use to process all the checked items. However if I check an item, change my mind and un-check it I don't "know" about this until another item is selected.

Tried using wx.EVT_LIST_ITEM_FOCUSED but has same issue.

Anyone has a tip what event I could use instead?

You'll probably have to intercept the lower-level mouse events before the listctrl gets them.

Will give this a try.
