Answer 1

You can use android:actionLayout="@[package:]layout/layout_resource_name" attribute. With this attribute, you can design your menu like normal layout. Try app:actionLayout if android:actionLayout not work

Answer 2

You can solve it by adding checkable parameter.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">

    <item
        android:id="@+id/show_artists_item"
        android:checkable="true"
        android:title="Show Album Artists"
        android:visible="true"
        app:showAsAction="always" />

</menu>
