Could you elaborate your purpose or meaning of sorting? Generally sort is used in other context -of sorting the records by the values of the columns ( alphabetically or numerically). However, it sounds by sorting you mean order of columns displayed in the editor or the app views.
If so, one cannot sort the columns (real and virtual) in the option Data --> Columns in the editor. You could alter the position or order of real columns in the backend table (GSheet etc) and the order will reflect in the editor Data -- > Columns option once you use the "Regenerate structure" option on the table in the editor. However this is applicable only for the real or physical columns.
If you are looking for certain order to be displayed in the various app views for users , you could define the column order ( both real and virtual) in the slices or views (table, detail, form views have column order option)
