MainWindow.xaml

<dxc:Annotation.AnchorPoint>
    <dxc:PaneAnchorPoint Pane="{Binding ElementName=defaultPane}">
        <dxc:PaneAnchorPoint.AxisXCoordinate>
            <dxc:AxisXCoordinate Axis="{Binding ElementName=xAxis}" 
                                 AxisValue="2.85"/>
        </dxc:PaneAnchorPoint.AxisXCoordinate>
        <dxc:PaneAnchorPoint.AxisYCoordinate>
            <dxc:AxisYCoordinate Axis="{Binding ElementName=yAxis}" 
                                 AxisValue="-30"/>
        </dxc:PaneAnchorPoint.AxisYCoordinate>
    </dxc:PaneAnchorPoint>
