How to add multiple menu sections to toolbar?

trying to create a toolbar programmatically and have run into a problem. I can add items fine, but the problem is that they all go under the same far right "more" section. No matter if I change the group id or the order every item falls under that same section. All help is greatly appreciated!

Here is the code to add the items:

public void setupToolbar(Toolbar t) {
        Menu editMenu = t.getMenu();
        t.setTitle(title);
        editMenu.add(20, 35, 200, "Title 2");
        editMenu.add(30, 45, 300, "Boom");
        editMenu.add(20, 55, 200, "Boom 2");
        editMenu.addSubMenu(10, 25, 100, "Title");
        t.setBackgroundColor(backgroundColor);
    }

Here is the result of that:

You need to set the showAsAction attribute on your MenuItem.

The one you are looking for ist probably always and / or ifRoom. Just set the correct value on the from add returned MenuItem.
