What can you do?
To learn how to use Antidote Corrector, read the software's documentation.
When you open Antidote Corrector from memoQweb, Antidote's main window shows all the visible target segments from the currently open document. That is, if a filter is active, segments outside the filter will not appear in Antidote. If you edit a segment in either memoQweb or Antidote, the translation changes in the other window, too.
If your project has more than one document, you can open a separate Antidote window for each. If you switch to another Antidote window, memoQweb switches to the document's browser tab belonging to that window. You can even have multiple documents open from different online projects, and switch between them by going to another Antidote window.
Antidote Corrector does not show tags or formatting. If, in the Antidote window, you edit text which is formatted in memoQ, the changes will be formatted in memoQweb, too. If only a part of the text that you're editing is formatted, memoQweb tries to find out if the changes should be formatted. If you edit text which has a tag in memoQweb, the tag will appear after the edited section of text in memoQweb.
As of August 2021, Antidote Corrector does not display tracked changes from webtrans. If Track Changes is enabled for a document in webtrans, and you change something in Antidote Corrector, webtrans will show it as a tracked change.

To close the current Antidote window: Click the red X button in the window's upper right corner. For Antidote Web, close the browser tab that shows the Antidote Corrector.
