    var x = <value>;
var wndClass = "WindowClassName";
var props = new Array("WndClass", "Visible");

var ctrls = wnd.FindAllChildren(props, values, 15);

for (var i = 0; i < ctrls.length; i++)
	if ()ctrls[i].ScreenLeft > x) {
		Log.Message("FullName: " + ctrls[i].FullName + "\r\n" +
						"ScreenLeft: " + ctrls[i].ScreenLeft);	
	}
}
