Yes, a diagonal step is fine past the corner of a single wall, blocking or impassable edge, or a diagonally placed figure. It is not allowed through a diagonal intersection where any combination of walls, blocking terrain or impassable edges meet; the two spaces there are not adjacent, so you cannot move, trace line of sight or melee across it.
