No I have not, I have no instance of the Display class to call that method on. But I figured out what I did wrong, I called the method before I opened any NEWT windows. After I have created and opened a NEWT window I can query Display.getAllDisplays()  and Screen.getAllScreens();

Actually, it is possible to get this information before opening any NEWT window, I do so in TUER and I think that there is at least one unit test doing that too.

Thank you for your explanation, that would be a good thing to add to the javadoc :)

You're welcome. You can still write a bug report pointing to this thread as this is a documentation bug. I would like to know Sven's opinion about what I wrote about these classes.
