# How to Add Arrows to the Chart Axis in WPF Chart
This article provides a detailed walkthrough on how to add arrows to the axis using Annotations in [WPF Chart](https://www.syncfusion.com/wpf-controls/charts).
The [SfChart](https://help.syncfusion.com/cr/wpf/Syncfusion.UI.Xaml.Charts.SfChart.html) includes support for [Annotations](https://help.syncfusion.com/cr/wpf/Syncfusion.UI.Xaml.Charts.SfChart.html#Syncfusion_UI_Xaml_Charts_SfChart_Annotations), enabling the addition of various types of annotations to enhance chart visualization. Using [Line Annotation](https://help.syncfusion.com/cr/wpf/Syncfusion.UI.Xaml.Charts.LineAnnotation.html) for you can achieves to add arrows to the axis.
The Line Annotation includes following property:
* [X1](https://help.syncfusion.com/cr/wpf/Syncfusion.UI.Xaml.Charts.Annotation.html#Syncfusion_UI_Xaml_Charts_Annotation_X1) - Represents the X1 Coordinate of the Line Annotation.
* [X2](https://help.syncfusion.com/cr/wpf/Syncfusion.UI.Xaml.Charts.ShapeAnnotation.html#Syncfusion_UI_Xaml_Charts_ShapeAnnotation_X2) - Represents the X2 Coordinate of the Line Annotation.
* [Y1](https://help.syncfusion.com/cr/wpf/Syncfusion.UI.Xaml.Charts.Annotation.html#Syncfusion_UI_Xaml_Charts_Annotation_Y1) - Represents the Y1 Coordinate of the Line Annotation.
* [Y2](https://help.syncfusion.com/cr/wpf/Syncfusion.UI.Xaml.Charts.ShapeAnnotation.html#Syncfusion_UI_Xaml_Charts_ShapeAnnotation_Y2) - Represents the Y2 Coordinate of the Line Annotation.
* [CanDrag](https://help.syncfusion.com/cr/wpf/Syncfusion.UI.Xaml.Charts.ShapeAnnotation.html#Syncfusion_UI_Xaml_Charts_ShapeAnnotation_CanDrag) - A Boolean value that represent to drag the Annotation.
* [CanResize](https://help.syncfusion.com/cr/wpf/Syncfusion.UI.Xaml.Charts.ShapeAnnotation.html#Syncfusion_UI_Xaml_Charts_ShapeAnnotation_CanResize) - A Boolean value that represent to resize the Annotation.
* [CoordinateUnit](https://help.syncfusion.com/cr/wpf/Syncfusion.UI.Xaml.Charts.Annotation.html#Syncfusion_UI_Xaml_Charts_Annotation_CoordinateUnit) - A Coordinate unit value that represent to position the Annotation.
Learn step-by-step instructions and gain insights to add arrows to the axis using annotations.
**Step 1:** Initialize the SfChart and add the series and legend to it as follows.
**XAML**
```xml
```
**Step 2:** Initialize the LineAnnotation within the Annotations collection of the SfChart, configure it to align with the desired axis, and use the LineCap property to add arrows to the line annotation.
**XAML**
```xml
......
......
```
**Output:**
