What I do is alter the editPolicy of the container that will hold it. 
Since in the examples, the container is the one responsible for resizing 
and moving.

So my container class has an editPolicy ContainerLayoutEditPolicy, and 
in the method called createChildEditPolicy, i set the childs edit policy 
based on its class type

NonResizableEditPolicy
LineSizeableEditPolicy - I think I created this for feedback purposes or 
something.

for those that dont require special handling i call
super.createChildEditPolicy()
