Fixes the Narrator accessibility bug on the What's New page (AB#3019248).

Problem

The Sl. No. column header in the Grid Shorthand Syntax sample table was announced literally by Narrator as ""SL NO"" instead of conveying a serial-number column. This violates MAS 4.1.2 (Name, Role, Value).

Fix

Added AutomationProperties.Name=""Serial Number"" to the header cell so screen readers announce a meaningful name, while the visible text remains Sl. No.. The displayed sample XAML string in the view model was updated to match.

Validation

  • dotnet build WPFGallery.csproj succeeds (0 errors).

The 'Sl. No.' column header in the Grid Shorthand Syntax sample on the What's New page was read literally by Narrator (as 'SL NO') instead of as a serial number. Add AutomationProperties.Name="Serial Number" to the header cell so screen readers announce a meaningful name. Addresses MAS 4.1.2 (Name, Role, Value). Fixes AB#3019248.
