flex := tview.NewFlex().
		AddItem(stats, 0, 1, false).
		AddItem(tview.NewFlex().SetDirection(tview.FlexRow).
			AddItem(textView, 0, 1, false).
			AddItem(textView, 0, 1, false).
			AddItem(textView, 0, 1, false), 0, 2, false).
		AddItem(tview.NewFlex().SetDirection(tview.FlexRow).
			AddItem(new_user_form, 0, 2, false), 0, 2, false)

	if err := app.SetRoot(flex, true).EnableMouse(true).Run(); err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}

Mouse is enabled, but I cannot click on the form

// New User Form
	new_user_form := tview.NewForm().
		AddDropDown("Title", []string{"Mr.", "Ms.", "Mrs.", "Dr.", "Prof."}, 0, nil).
		AddInputField("First name", "", 20, nil, nil).
		AddInputField("Last name", "", 20, nil, nil).
		AddCheckbox("Age 18+", false, nil).
		AddPasswordField("Password", "", 10, '*', nil).
		AddButton("Save", nil).
		AddButton("Quit", func() {
			app.Stop()

	new_user_form.SetBorder(true).SetTitle("New User Form").SetTitleAlign(tview.AlignLeft)

Ok this appears to be an issue with iTerm2. Using normal terminal in macos it works perfectly

For those of you looking for this answer, in iTerm2 go to Prefs > Profiles > Terminal and Enable Mouse Reporting. This fixed it for me
