On a fresh install of 18.04, with laptop and two external monitors, I turned off the laptop display in Settings->Devices->Screen Display using the ON/OFF slider. How do I turn it back on again? Once turned off, it is taken out of the display arrangement. If I remove the laptop from the dock and power-on, it's display works. If I hot plug into the dock again, the two external monitors switch on, but the laptop screen switches off.

You can turn it back on by clicking on your monitor number in the Display menu and selecting the monitor that is turned back off. Screengrab below:
display monitor selection
Each monitor has a number. If you go to Settings > Devices > Screen Display and find the monitor number that is your primary monitor. Click on the number and it will show you a dropdown menu of all available monitors. Select the one you turned off and turn it back on.

- Go to Settings
- Click on Devices
Now you should have a window like the one displayed Displays
Then click on the display button (below the Display Arrangement section -- in my case it is 'Dell 22"')
You will get a menu listing of all your displays. You can then select the display you want to enable and turn on the display.
