In any Home Designer version and title the best way to add a patio is to demark its boundaries using invisible "Room Definition Walls" to create its area. Once it has a Room Dialog Box in place by drawing at least three such walls you can then define its floor height, ceiling height (if required) and whether or not the space has a ceiling or not. If you want a roof or covered patio having walls to define its boundaries is still required but instead of invisible walls you could use railing walls set to emulate posts and beams to support an arbor type "ceiling" or roof. The above is quite generalized due to not knowing exactly what intend and what software you are using.
