Opening a New View
One feature of Revit that has been with us for a long time is also quite subtle. When you open a new floor plan view Revit will attempt to respect what you are currently looking at in a floor plan view. For example, if you zoom into look at a specific room or door family and then open a floor plan for another level, Revit will open the new view zoomed into the same area of the model (but on the other level). The key is the view can't already be open. I've posted a video to explain visually...

Is this a setting? Mine does not work this way.
No, it should just work as long as the "other" view (the one you want to open) isn't already open.
If you only have a linked file it might be possible that Revit doesn't acknowledge the extent of the view the same way, but I'd have to get to Revit to test.
