Dynamic Parameter Sweeps

I've been simulating micro ring resonators in COMSOL for a while now, and wondered if there's anyway to implement a 'dynamic' parameter sweep when trying to characterise the resonators response.
As it is currently, the wavelength can be swept only by a fixed interval. This means that an interval value that is small enough to map a resonance in high detail also wastes lots of data (and computation) points plotting the response outside of the resonance where the change is minimal.
Is there a way that the sweep interval value can be calculated as a function of the transmission from the through port?
I.e. When the change in transmission relative to the last point in the sweep is low (non-resonant), the interval increases to speed up computation - Sweep gets more coarse
When delta is high (in resonance), the interval decreases to map notch with high resolution - sweep gets more fine
Any help on this would be appreciated, thanks!
