In fact, with my Windsport, when auto-leveling does lift the front tires off the ground, it will automatically keep the rear jacks from extending so the rear tires stay on the ground.

I use chocks under the tires that are still planted on the ground, by the way, for extra safety.
I was wondering about that Tom. My rear tires do stay on the ground when it lifts the front ones. I am just not sure as I am still new to all this. I have it off the jacks now and don't believe it will ever stay in storage much longer than a month anyway, so I guess I will just go with that.
