I tried to measure the distance between 2 points in x y z direction ,

I think i have used the right option, but the option seems to be not working (please see attached image)

See attached, firstly "click here to add item" button and then select If you're in a part use the parts csys (pick in model tree) If you're in an assembly then pick the top assembly csys
