Stretchable shape to fill ground gap

I've now managed to get the first set of simulation results for a real EM problem from schematic through extraction, but I'm wondering how to arrange for a stretchable ground object so that as I optimise the layout it fills the gap.

Shqape is brown in photo and as you can see it has moved away from the ground pad on the left.

I've tried using a dynamically sized MLIN which works but I need to calculate the length manually and I'd rather it just stretched to fill the space to adjacent (red) object.

Is there any way to do this?

    Don't understand the question, I suggest for this you can contact customer support (submit a support case after logging in) with the project - that way an Application Engineer in team can look at this together with you.

    If you mean the lines becomes unconnected when you change a parameter, you can make auto-snap together when a parameter change. 
    (You can make an equation for this instead of manual calculations.) you need to make your question clearer.
