Are you just wanting to be able to move a graphics item around your scene? If so, then all you need to do is set some flags for the item. For example,

setFlag(QGraphicsItem::ItemIsSelectable);
setFlag(QGraphicsItem::ItemIsMovable);
setFlag(QGraphicsItem::ItemSendsGeometryChanges);

If you are actually trying to implement drag-and-drop onto your graphics item, you must call setAcceptDrops(true) for your item.

The reason for some of this extra work is that Qt, by default, is trying to optimize the performance of your scene. So you have to explicitly opt-in to some of these extra features. You are saying, "I know this will have a negative impact on performance, but I'm OK with that; I need this feature."
