Summary:

In order to distinguish functional entities from function the symbol of functional entity should be changed to an eigth-angled rectangle instead of a rectangle with rounded edges. This will help in readability of figure 4-2, 4-3, 4-4, 4-5, 4-6, 4-7, A-1, as the functional entities and functions looks the same.

The change needs to be made for the following figures: 4-1, 4-2, 4-3, 4-4, 4-5, 4-6, 4-7, 4-8, 4-9, 4-26, 5-1, 6-4, A-1

Description of requested change:

(Use From: "..." To "..." format)
For all figures with functional entities
