hi all, i would like to transfer one of my apps (Lightroom) files and settings from one MBP to the other. Is there any way i can do this and keep everything exactly the same (i.e catalog, albums, presets, dates etc)?

Time Machine allows selective restoration of app?

yes, it works for most apps. not sure about Lightroom which probably isn't one of those self contained apps n has a lot of settings/preferences stored elsewhere. if so it will likely be easier to restore e whole backup then uninstall what is not needed...
