Visual Basic	Public Property LevelOfDetail As Integer
C#	public int LevelOfDetail { get; set; }
C++	public: property int LevelOfDetail { int get(); void set(int value); }
JScript	public function get LevelOfDetail() : int public function set LevelOfDetail(int);

Property Value

System.Int32
Most detailed LOD value to set in the chain.
This property is read/write.

Remarks

This property returns 0 on nonmanaged textures.

Setting LevelOfDetail communicates to the Microsoft Direct3D texture manager the most detailed mipmap in the chain that should be loaded into local video memory. For example, in a five-level mipmap chain, setting LevelOfDetail to 2 indicates that the texture manager should load only mipmap levels 2 through 4 into local video memory at any given time.

More specifically, if the texture was created with the dimensions of 256x256, setting the most detailed level to 0 indicates that 256x256 is the largest mipmap available, setting the most detailed level to 1 indicates that 128x128 is the largest mipmap available, and so on, up to the most detailed mip level (the smallest texture size) for the chain.
