The basic definition of travelling is moving the feet in excess while holding the ball. Once the ball is placed down, there is no longer any player control, and there cannot be a travelling violation.
I didn't make a good reply last time. We agree that you must be in control to travel.

But, 4-43-3 and 4-43-4 explain how you legally, intentionally release the ball: try, dribble, or pass.
