Mac does have some focus niggles that Linux and Windows don't.
The control window (and all undocked windows) can be raised by
pressing the "Raise Windows" button (right most button in the main
buttonbar).
Additionally, OS X has a feature you may not now about. Click and hold
down on the docked Scid icon. After a while a menu will appear that
shows all submenus of Scid, from which you may select the tacgame
control window.

Yes... ScidvsPC does really a little heavily on having focus on the main board,
and OS X focus is hard to pin down. Perhaps i can extend the scope of
some shortcut keys, but it needs thorough testing.

cheers.
