You'll need to specify in the room (or your default) where you want floor insulation to be shown.  Then once you've selected that it should be 'auto detailed', it should show up in your material list.

yes, my question is about correct count. The Material List does is not close to correct count by my calculations.

Theo, perhaps you could be more specific about the output you are looking for. My own preference is to report wall insulation by area instead of by number of batts.

Perhaps the simplest way to have the insulation report accurately in the materials list is to add a 0 thickness layer to the wall definition and use a copy of the Vapor Barrier material and then name that material something like "Insulation Area". The mat list output will then report the same area for insulation and vapor barrier and it will take openings into account.
