No because it's about setting the columns format for the agenda view alone, not the format for normal org buffers. My error was in using a deprecated variable; the actual variable is org-overriding-columns-format. The OP's post was actually about the documentation (which I misunderstood). -- Eric S Fraga via Emacs 27.0.50, Org release_9.2.4-401-gfabd6d
