I've managed to get a good grip on the charting component that was introduced with .NET 4. I've managed to create a chart, add some series and legends and plot out some data. I've also worked out annotations in the designer, but cannot do so programatically.

I've searched on a few sites, but they are mostly ASP.NET / C# examples that don't really line up with what I'm seeing in the IDE.

What I'd like to insert a line pointing to a particular X & Y coordinate and a caption saying what happened there, but it also seems like the X & Y it's looking for are pixels and not the X & Y you would use for a chart. Quite confusing.

Has anyone had any experience with annotations in the new charting component?
 
Anchoring to a DataPoint is done with the AnchorDataPoint property. I recommend you experiment with configuring things in the designer first, translating that to code (if any) later is much easier.
