Is it possible to pass params to constructor of linked class?

In FLash IDE, in the Symbol Properties, in the ActionScript Linkage, I can set the Class I want so that my movieClip symbole has its own custom class which extends MovieClip

The question is, is it possible to pass some parameters to the custom class constructor for my movieClip symbole?? I can do a trick by checking the name of the movieClip but I thought there would be a better way?

AFAIK, the Flash IDE expect the custom class to present the same constructor than MovieClip. It wouldn't know how to instantiate it otherwise. That said, do the data absolutely needs to be in the constructor ? If not, you could have a initialize() method in your class, and call it on each instance from the timeline. – Aralicia

No, it's not possible.

Flash IDE instantiate object internally without passing any parameters to the constructor.
