Answer 1

I need something similar and this solved my problem.

@FXML
public MenuButton menuButton;  
......  
CheckBox cb0 = new CheckBox("x");  
CustomMenuItem item0 = new CustomMenuItem(cb0);  
CheckBox cb1 = new CheckBox("y");  
CustomMenuItem item1 = new CustomMenuItem(cb1);  
item0.setHideOnClick(false);  
item1.setHideOnClick(false);  
menuButton.getItems().setAll(item0,item1);
