Visual Studio 2019 SSRS Page Breaks - reporting-services

I have an SSRS report I have written in Visual Studio 2019. In this report, I have a subreport that is built on a Tablix grid and I need that grid to have a page break so that it keeps the data together and not split it between pages. I tried the Keep Together on the Tablix properties but that didn't work. I found information on using the Row Groups and the Options Property -> Other -> KeepTogether = True and that worked but only for page 1. After page 1, the data broke between pages 2 and 3.
Is there a setting I missing that forces the Keep Together on all pages vs. just page 1?
Thanks.

SSRS Report - Subreport can't be found

Ok, I have an SSRS report that has 2 subreports in it. One works just fine and the other works in testing but when I publish the report to my AMS platform under their instructions, the subreport comes up saying it can't be found. I can run the report through Visual Studio and it works just fine without a problem and I have rebuilt the entire project a few times and republished but I still keep getting the same error. I know that the publishing is working because I made a change to the main report to expand the subreport area and allow me to see the full error and that published fine. Any reason this would work through Visual Studio but not when published? The report along with the 2 subreports all are in the same directory as well.
Additional note to this. I just went to the master report in Visual Studio and deleted the subreport from it. I then re-added it and gave it a different name. Rebuilt the report and re-uploaded it including the already uploaded sub report and I am getting the same error but the error is referring to the new name I gave the subreport so it picked up the name change but not the actual sub report for some reason
Sometimes SSRS website caches your old report and doesn't get overridden by your new reports. On the SSRS website, try removing all of your reports including the main report. Then re-deploy.

Issue while rendering multiple sub reports with different header and footer in a main report

I have around 10 SSRS reports (i.e. 10 .rdl files) and those needs to be exported to one PDF. How can I do this? Do I need to write custom C#.Net code or SSDT 2017 provides any simple feature to export that?
Please note that, all the RDL files has different header and footer, The 1st page has image in it,few pages has both tabular as well as matrix report.
As suggested, I have one main report and I'm adding sub-report one after another (just maintain the sequence)
I searched on MSDN, however, it looks like Microsoft does not have such feature till now OR may be I'm missing something? Or any special setting or .Net code needs to be written?
Note: I have two version of SSDT (2016 and 2017)
You could just create a master report and then put your 10 reports in that as subreports.
If you reports take a parameters then all the parameters will have to be setup in the master report and then passed to the sub report.
Then, just run the master report and export to PDF...

Report not showing all data and not paginating

I've returned to our reports collection after a couple of years away, and added a new report which has a simple tablix containing a few columns, but many rows from the dataset.
The problem is, the report (in Preview in VS, and when run on the Report Server) only shows some of the rows returned by the dataset, and doesn't enable the page navigation icons in order to scroll through the data to access the rest.
Where do I find the settings which control these things, please?
UPDATE:
Looking at some pre-existing reports, it seem that these exhibit the same problem - it would appear that SSRS can only display about 5,000 rows regardless of how many the dataset contains.
There is a 'hidden' setting in the XML code (not available via the UI AFAIK) called InteractiveHeight. Removing this line resulted in the paging starting to work

SSRS Report not updating in Preview in Visual Studio

I've never seen this problem before.
The report elements are not updating from changes made in the Design mode in Visual Studio (2015). It's not a data issue - even static text box changes are not appearing.
I had removed the Member ID column, combined the last and first names into a single Member Name column, added a couple of columns and renamed SEX to Gender. Here's the Design view.
These changes should appear when I click on Preview but Visual Studio displays the old report.
As I mentioned, I haven't seen this before and haven't found any similar issues when using Google-Fu. I have tried restarting VS but that was no help. The only thing I did to get from the first pic to the second is to press the Preview button in Visual Studio. I've been trying to make it update for over half an hour now. I've updated and created hundreds of SSRS report over the last 15 years but have never seen or heard of this issue.
Is there some new preview caching that SSRS is now doing? It seems similar to the dumb data caching issue but I don't see where the report would be cached. This is completely ridiculous - what moron would create a caching for something being developed so changes can't be viewed?
How can I see the correct preview in my SSRS report in Viusual Studio?

How can I render a report as a PDF with different page orientation, and include headers/footers for subreports? SSRS

Working with Reporting Services 2008 r2.
So here's my issue:
We have 5 reports that need to be combined into an "All Reports" report, which was originally done using VB6.
I created a master report with 5 subreports, and of course, it doesn't work.
I need to get certain reports to render as landscape, and others as portrait. Also, I want to get the headers and footers from each of the subreports.
I know that SSRS doesn't support either of these, but is there a way to "pre-render" the subreports as PDF, and then combine them into one PDF via reporting services?
This cannot be done out of the box. The only way you're going to accomplish this is through custom code. There are tools out there that you can build/buy to merge your PDFs into a single document. I can't comment on which tool is the best approach, but I can tell you custom code is the only approach.
