It seems able to do so. I know that I have given it dimensions to the
nearest "non-round" millimeter and it did not balk. For example, I can
specify wall thicknesses as 123 mm, 124 mm, 129 mm, or whatever my
imagination devises.
When laying out exterior wall lengths, the values seem to increment in
multiples of 25 mm if drawn with mouse or arrow keys, but I think that
those can then be tweaked to the nearest millimeter. I haven't tried
that part yet. Perhaps you can try the free demo out and see what you
think.
