There are several places where the code says to check drift on load combinations, but since the drift due to gravity loads is usually small, many users simplify things and check drift on load cases instead.
Note, you can make your own load combination templates that use custom load factors. There are some instructions in the RAMLoadCombinationGenerator.pdf program manual, or copy and edit one of the existing templates.
