          public void setStructureTreeElement(StructureTreeElement structureTreeElement)

      Sets the structure element corresponding to this action.
      Parameters:
        `structureTreeElement` - a reference to the structure element

    - #### getStructureTreeElement

          public StructureTreeElement getStructureTreeElement()

      Returns the structure element corresponding to this action.

        the reference to the structure element

    - #### hasID

          public boolean hasID()

      Indicates whether the action has an ID and is therefore referencable.
