It can also be used metaphorically to describe something that is effortless, easy, or without complications, such as a "hladký průběh" (smooth progress) or a "hladký chod" (smooth running). The use of the genitive case "hladkého" indicates a possessive or descriptive relationship with another noun, signifying a quality of that noun.
