Hello & Welcome to Android Central Forums!

I do believe you have to have swipe to unlock, when using the pin. You can choose NONE in the settings; this will open your phone to your home screen, but takes away pin or swipe options.

I don't have the 7, so goto Settings>Personal>Lock Screen and Security> See if there's anything in there that my contradict, what I'm saying.

You can't but if you use fingerprint it's very fast. Press home button to wake handset up and touch again for fingerprint and voila! No swiping. If you get fingerprint wrong or wait too long it will pop up with the pin pad.
