iOS 7 provides for a UIScreenEdgePanGestureRecognizer which detects swipes in from edges of the screen. Can this gesture be simulated using the iOS7 simulator in Xcode? Clicking and dragging outside the screen area just moves the whole simulator frame around.

1- Place the pointer at the start position. 2- Hold the mouse button. 3- Move the pointer in the swipe direction and release the mouse button.
You'll need to go to Settings > Advanced and check the Show Debug Menu option. Then you'll see the option to open the web inspector for the Simulator right from that menu. With the Web Inspector open, you can debug inside the Simulator just like you could right in a desktop browser with DevTools.
Show activity on this post. Drag the other app you like from the dock but don't let go of your finger until you completely pull it to the edge of the screen and you see your iPad showing a nice split view. If you let go too quick then the app would just show on top of the other.
On Simulator Version 11.4 I see the option
Window -> Show Device Bezels
which shows a virtual device frame around the simulated phone:
This allows to start the gesture "outside" of the screen. I could successfully trigger a UIScreenEdgePanGestureRecognizer from the left.

You don't have to swipe across the edges to trigger a UIScreenEdgePanGestureRecognizer, just start very close to the edge. It works if I start not more than ~15 points from the edge.
(this if for the simulator. I never tested this on a device)
As a side note: You have to create a gestureRecognizer for each edge. You can't OR edges together, so UIRectEdgeAll won't work.
