Patch antenna

I would like to use flatcam to generate cnc gcode for a patch antenna on a pcb. This rf application requires the removal of all copper not associated with the patches or feedlines. I see a technique described for copper removal for open areas but nothing for regions with traces. Is there a way that one does not have to tediously describe many arbitrarily shaped regions? Perhaps flatcam has to have a rectangular boundary for copper removal too.
