Set Die Type in Symbol Editor?

We have some Die In custom code that takes a *.die file and runs the APD Die In routine along with other code to generate a die symbol.  With newer versions of APD there's a die type parameter on ICs in APD that needs to be set to WIREBOND or FLIP CHIP.  This is easy enough to do in APD with the menus or with axlSetDieType() in SKILL.  Is there a way to set and embed this in the .dra file (or .psm file) itself?  Our FLIP CHIP symbols always come in defaulted to WIREBOND and we have to change them manually.  It would be nice to set them when created but I haven't seen how to do this.
