We argue that the dxy component of the order parameter can be generated to form the dx2-y2+idxy-density-wave state by an external magnetic field. The driving force for this transition is the coupling of the magnetic field with orbital magnetism. The fully gapped particle spectrum and the magnetically active collective mode of the condensate are discussed as a possible signature of the d+id-density-wave state.
