Dim instance As BookmarkReachedEventArgs |

public class BookmarkReachedEventArgs : PromptEventArgs |
Remarks
An instance of BookmarkReachedEventArgs is created when the SpeechSynthesizer object raises the BookmarkReached event. The SpeechSynthesizer raises the BookmarkReached event when it encounters a bookmark while processing any of the Speak()()()(), SpeakAsync()()()(), SpeakSsml(String), or SpeakSsmlAsync(String) methods. To obtain the name and location of the bookmark that triggered the event, access the Bookmark and the AudioPosition properties in the handler for the event.
Examples
The following example creates a prompt that includes two bookmarks and sends the output to a WAV file for playback. The handler for the BookmarkReached event writes the name of the bookmark and its position in the audio stream when the event was raised to the console.
