The LinkToAction UI element is a hypertext link. The navigation to this link triggers a Web Dynpro action.
If the property text has not been set, the property tooltip is checked during the design time to ensure Accessibility.
A tooltip does not necessarily have to be set for this UI element, but it could make sense to set it if it contains detailed semantic information.
