Is there a faster way to order the list of tools by their diameter and name?

[iamcdn79]

Right now I have a working macro that reorders my list of tools by their diameter and then their name but it is slow. Was wondering if there could be a faster way that would be instantaneous and not have to watch each tool being moved.

Attached is a video of what the macro looks like and the macro 

// First sorting operation on the second option (name)
FOREACH tl IN (sort(folder('tool'),'name')) {
ORDERSESSION Tool $tl.name FIRST
}
// Second sorting operation on the main criteria ( diameter)
FOREACH tl IN (sort(folder('tool'),'diameter')) {
ORDERSESSION Tool $tl.name FIRST
}

In this case, the sorting time can be cut in half if you prepare a sorted list with all the criteria and only then apply the sorting.

ENTITY LIST toolsSorted = sort(folder('Tool'),'name')
$toolsSorted = sort(folder('Tool'),'diameter')

FOREACH tl IN toolsSorted {
	ORDERSESSION Tool $tl.name FIRST
}

I also noticed that Windows 11 has faster handling of the entity tree. But that's just my anecdotal experience and I'm actually still using Windows 10.

Yes, that is faster but it doesn't give me the list of tool names in the correct order. see below

I'm sorry, the code before has a bug.

ENTITY LIST toolsSorted = sort(folder('Tool'),'name')
$toolsSorted = reverse($toolsSorted)
$toolsSorted = sort($toolsSorted,'diameter')

FOREACH tl IN toolsSorted {
	ORDERSESSION Tool $tl.name FIRST
}
