Fixed plot height question

I've tried many things, so it's time to call on the gurus. I'm trying to make a plot that will conform to the width of the plot device but have a fixed height (say one inch regardless of the plot device height setting -- unless obviously it's less than the plot device). Is this possible?
Yes. Set par(pin=c(par("pin")[1], 1)).
Warning: you may not have meant the plot height, rather the figure height.
See R-Intro for the differences.
Additionally, I'd like to be able to plot something immediately after this plot and have it right below. Would this require a par(mfrow=c ()) command? Can anyone help?
Using par(plt=) will do this for you. Or look into grid, layout or split.screen.
