We report the results of maximum entropy eclipse-mapping analysis of an ensemble of light curves of the dwarf nova V4140 Sagitarii (V4140 Sgr) with the objective of studying the spatial distribution of its steady-light and flickering sources in quiescence, and the changing disk structure during an outburst.
