Is there a possibility to round up dimensions in the exported NC files for profile elements?

Question:
When creating NC files for profile elements (beams, columns, braces etc.) the length and hole dimensions are coming exactly as they are in the model. In drawings there is an option to round up these dimensions.
For example, if the exact length of a part is 1600.60mm, then in drawing it can be shown as 1601mm. But in an NC file for the part the length is exactly 1600.60mm.

Is there a possibility to round up this value in the NC files also?

Answer:
There is possibility to define the number of decimals in the NC File Settings dialog box, on the Advanced Options tab:
