Use "settings" - "snapping options" and tick "avoid intersections" for the layer in question

Hi,

I have a PostGIS polygon layer in QGIS which I need to add features to.

I can add polygons to it, no problem, but I need to be able to have the edges 
of the new features lined up exactly with the existing features. This is 
essentially to fill a void in the layer, or to continue in one direction. I 
have done this before using local shapefiles and the difference tool (very time 
consuming!), but this requires separate layers.

Is it possible to achieve the same result with a single PostGIS layer, so I can 
overlap an existing feature with my new feature, and trim it to the existing 
feature's boundary?

I hope this makes sense!

Thanks
