I had a look recently, after having to set up a new macOS VM.

The set of widgets is slightly platform dependent, as expected. E.g. the 
ComboBox can be dragged on Windows as there it is probably a native widget.

StaticLine is working on both platforms.

The composite / generic widgets just do not receive the required mouse 
events. I tried with a EventFilter, but that did not work as well.

The SplitterWindow could be made draggable, but actually it's much more 
useful to being able to set the splitter position.

So, this will not be fixed. Just use Cut and Paste or drag in or from 
the Tree window.
