Android 10 - Adding Icons to Menu Items

They don't make it easy and previous methods like the following do not work.

<item android:id="@+id/action_settings2"    
   android:title="@string/action_settings2"
   android:icon=@drawable/your_image"/>

I had to add a menu type image through Android Studio (See screen shots) and use the following menu XML:

<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    tools:context="com.s33me.hamsandwich.BaseMenu"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" android:layout_width="match_parent">
    <item
        android:id="@+id/action_more"
        android:title=""
        >
      <item android:id="@+id/item1"
          android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_search"
          app:showAsAction="always"
          android:title="Search"
          />

    <item android:id="@+id/item4"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_mail"
        app:showAsAction="always"
        android:title="Export"
        />
    <item android:id="@+id/item2"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_home"
        app:showAsAction="ifRoom"
        android:title="Home"/>
    <item android:id="@+id/item3"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_exit"
        app:showAsAction="ifRoom"
        android:title="Exit"
         />
    </item>
</menu>

This looks like this (ugly and inconsistent):
