Records changes made to element attributes that are defined as being part of a user's user preferences object and not part of the layout. These attributes are specified in the .sdf files for the structure and theme stylesheets. The value is not stored in the layout but the loading of user prefs joins to a layout struct and hence that struct must exist in the layout. This call gets that node into the PLF if not there already and prevents it from being removed if no other changes were made to it or its children by the user.

Throws:

Exception
