How can I use a mac to scroll and copy-paste text on the tmux via ssh?

I always use macos Terminal.app to control my ubuntu servers via ssh, and I need to use tmux to keep my program running in background.
Now, I know how to configure the tmux (on my ubuntu servers) to enable scroll screen by mouse:
add configuration to the .tmux.conf file :
set -g mouse on
But I found it doesn't work when I want to copy text on my Terminal.app, shift + left drag and shift + wheel can't copy and paste.
How should I configure tmux on server to enable scroll and copy-paste at same time ?
Or what kind of third-party terminal application should I use to realize these two functions?
ssh terminal tmux tmux-plugin-manager
