Hello Gil,
Add a PlotRange->All
For example:
Needs["Graphics`Shapes`"];
Show[
TranslateShape[Graphics3D[Sphere[]],{15, 35, 12}],
TranslateShape[Graphics3D[Sphere[]],{85, 3, 10}],
TranslateShape[Graphics3D[Sphere[]],{1, 3, 13}],
TranslateShape[Graphics3D[Sphere[]],{1, 12, 8}],
TranslateShape[Graphics3D[Sphere[]],{0, 0, 0}],
TranslateShape[Graphics3D[Sphere[]],{17, 0, 2}],
TranslateShape[Graphics3D[Sphere[]],{10, 200, 200}],
TranslateShape[Graphics3D[Sphere[]],{200, 10, 26}],
TranslateShape[Graphics3D[Sphere[]],{11, 70, 25}],
TranslateShape[Graphics3D[Sphere[]],{3, 2, 17}],
TranslateShape[Graphics3D[Sphere[]],{24, 0, 1}],
TranslateShape[Graphics3D[Sphere[]],{0, 0, 1}],
TranslateShape[Graphics3D[Sphere[]],{51, 0, 4}],
TranslateShape[Graphics3D[Sphere[]],{10, 0, 1}],
TranslateShape[Graphics3D[Sphere[]],{0, 0, 0}],
TranslateShape[Graphics3D[Sphere[]],{4, 0, 0}],
TranslateShape[Graphics3D[Sphere[]],{1, 0, 0}],
TranslateShape[Graphics3D[Sphere[]],{1, 1, 5}],
PlotRange->All ];
