Swipe required before pattern unlock on Marshmallow 6 I have pattern screen lock set on Samsung S6, and with the marshmallow 6 upgrade I must swipe before I get the pattern. Can I disable the required swipe, and just open to the pattern unlock screen?
I cannot confirm whether this feature would work on your particular ROM but it definitely works for stock Android 5.x and 6.x. You would need a rooted Android, compatible Xposed Framework installed and GravityBox [MM] installed and activated. 

In GravityBox, under Lockscreen tweaks go to Direct unlock and choose Standard or See through. Select Default under Direct unlock policy.

This would make sure to show the unlock phase of lock screen whenever the device is securely locked and screen is turned on.
