Cannot join an external screen and the screen of the labtop

[DESBIOLLES Pierre]

I can use either the labtop screen OR the DELL external screen but I cannot join the two screens, as it was possible (and very easy) with Ubuntu 16.04. It did not work with 18.04, it does not work with 20.04. It is very frustrating since it works when I start the computer, I can see the "Ubuntu" word on both the screens, but after I enter my password I can use only one of the screen (I change from "parameters").
