When I click the shape, the selection-handles will show. How to prevent the selection of Shape? Some shape can't be moved, resized. So I want to prevent the selection behavior.

You can set the shape to inactive. Inactive shapes do not react to selection.

I have a containershape. There are some children(text,polyline) in the containershape. I want to fix the containershape in a position and prevent the containershape from moving and changing size.
I set the containershape to inactive.
But the containershape don't display.

Ah sorry, for root shapes the inactive attribute will not work. In that case you need to return null for the move and resize features for these shapes in your feature provider.
