LinkToURL 
The LinkToURL UI element is a hypertext link. When you choose this link, you are directed to a user-defined Web resource (URL).
The LinkToUrl is used to exclusively to open URLs in a separate window. To leave the Web Dynpro application and display a new URL use an exit plug.
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.
