[[File:smoothed_wall.png|thumb||right|Unsmoothed room (left) and a smoothed one (right).]]'''Smoothing''' rough [[stone]] is a simple way to increase the value of a [[room]]. Walls and floors become Smooth ''Material'' Wall/Floor when smoothed. It is impossible to [[climb]] a smooth wall.

==How to Smooth==
 
−
A dwarf must have the [[Engraver|Stone Detailing]] labour active. Designate the area to be smoothed ({{k|d}}-{{k|s}}).  Note that this can only be done with natural stone — soil cannot be smoothed, and [[construction]]s are already considered to be smooth for most purposes.

Smoothed "natural" [[ice]] has different names than regular smoothed items. The walls are "straight" and floors are "level".

==Follow Up==

After a natural stone surface is smoothed, it may be further improved by [[engraving]]. This increases the room's value, but, unlike smoothing, engraving has quality levels. A wall can only be engraved once (for floors, there is a [[DF2014:Engraving#Removal|workaround]]). Using only skilled [[engraver]]s will result in higher room and fortress values. One way to achieve this is to have a limited number of dwarves with the [[Engraver|Stone Detailing]] labour active smooth large areas of the fortress until the dwarves are experienced, then, have those same dwarves engrave. The result will be [[Legendary|high-quality]] engravings.

Smoothed walls are also a prerequisite for carving [[fortification]]s. Engraved walls can also be carved into fortifications, but the engravings will be destroyed in the process.
