Today I cut this design using some leftover scrap vinyl, and I misjudged the placing. The bottom of the T was cut off. It was quick and easy to recut JUST the T I needed - here's how I did it.
On the layers panel on the right, find the piece I need. Here, it's the word "today. Select it in the layers panel, then at the top right, select duplicate.
Now I have a second copy of the word today. But I only need the T - so I selected that word, and chose "contour". I chose "hide all contours" and it hid all but the T automatically, since the T is first - but you can click on each item you want to hide and or cut.
Then I changed the T to purple. Any color not in the original design works - I just wanted it to be quick and easy to find. I clicked make it, it shows my entire project. On the left, I clicked on the purple mat, and cut just that one.
I could always just hide everything but the T before clicking make it- but changing the color feels faster for me, whether it actually is or not. :-)
