By default WLC fires when the list value you selected is different from the previously selected value. However if opening up another window requires any key-hit or mouse move you can write when-validate-item or post-text-item to handle when list-not-changed but reselected.

If not try using mouse triggers like when-mouse-click or double click..you can also think of creating timer for a mills or so and have a WTE trigger. I have done that before but don't remember the steps exactly.
