Yes. Something like this:

a!formLayout(
  contents: rule!XXX_IF_contents(
    textField1: ri!textField1,
    textField2: ri!textField2,
    textField3: ri!textField3,
    dropDownValue: ri!droDownValue
  )
)

You can then re-use the rule!XXX_IF_contents() in the other form you mention.

Hi Stewart, Thanks for replying, I have some text fields and one dropdown fields in contents that i would use in new interface, so are you saying to create new interface that should contain only text fields and drop down field?

I guess it depends on how much of the Form Layout you need to re-use. In your original layout you could encapsulate everything that is contained in the 'contents' attribute in its own rule. You could then re-use this. What would be missing would be the values of the other attributes:

label, instructions, buttons, validations, validationGroup, skipAutoFocus, showWhen
