Compare two 3D models

I attached a picture of the issue I am having. I would like to compare the distances of the 3d model's x,y, and z axis separately but the check box is greyed out. I am assuming because Cloud Compare doesn't know the x, y, and z axis of my cubes? Is there a remedy to this?

Also, the cube I am comparing against is behind the cube shown.

Ah no, it's because you are using meshes. CloudCompare can only split the 'distance' (vector) along the 3D dimensions when comparing point clouds.

You could convert your meshes to dense point clouds (with Edit > Mesh > Sample points) and perform a C2C computation?

Hi daniel! I recently had a similar problem. Your solution worked perfectly in my case. Thank you!
