The textures pane displays all the texture resources created up to and including the selected command.
If the texture has a mip-map chain, then you can change the displayed mip-map level with the slider at the bottom. By default level 0 (the highest resolution) level will be displayed.
Placing your mouse cursor over the texture will display a zoomed in preview of the surrounding pixels in the bottom-left hand corner of the view.
To the left of the texture view is a toolbar with the following buttons:
